6thAugust


The young Zalán’s dream was to invite for a ride his friend from the nursery, Olivia in his own car.

So I went on a nice sunny afternoon to Zalan’s family to surprise the little boy.

Earlier that day at the hospital he got some serious treatment, so he was tired and his mood was not too bright when I arrived.
To cheer him up I decided cut my visit short and gave him the police car without much fuss. I thought that he will be less shy with only his family around him.

And I was right as since then he has been racing with the car all around and has taken his little girlfriend for some rides too.
I received pictures from his mother which was taken while he was sleeping in his car, so its has multiple functions too...


We would like to thank Firstmed-FMC Kft. for the support and their representative Málnási Kinga for her personal attendance.

June 16th, 2018 was a big day for the 15-year-old Cintia and the 12-year-old Dzsenifer. They and their moms met at the Liszt Ferenc Airport to fly to London, the place of their dreams.

None of the girls had been on an airplane before, thus the flight was a fantastic experience for them. After arriving at Luton airport, we took the train to London. During the train ride, the girls got a little taste of the English countryside and its picturesque towns. After check-in and a little rest, we got on the tube to go to Buckingham Palace. The girls were looking in awe at the beautiful residence of the Queen. Then we walked over to Trafalgar square to admire Nelson's Column.

Sunday morning we got on a sightseeing bus. Our first stop was King Cross Station to see the 9 and 3/4 platform. The girls had their photos taken decked out in Gryffindor scarves and holding wands. Our next stop was the Tower of London. After a short coffee break, we took a boat tour on the Thames. We admired the beautiful buildings lining both sides of the river. After the boat tour, we headed to Leicester square to admire the Lego World store and exhibition, and the world's biggest M&M's store.

We also visited the New Scotland Yard and the Household Cavalry Museum. The gate is guarded by two members of the Mounted Household Cavalry who were sitting on their horses looking very stern.
Our adventures continued Monday morning on the London Eye. Everybody must try it once! We could not stop turning from side to side in the cabin, admiring the awesome panorama. And it is very safe. One of us was a bit afraid of heights, but even she was stuck to the windows, looking out.

Next, we headed to the Parliament and Big Ben. They were very impressive, even though Big Ben was hiding under scaffolding. Since we were in the neighbourhood, we checked out 10 Downing Street as well.

After that, we visited Westminster Abbey and Westminster Cathedral. The abundance of sights, the statues, the windows, the enormous vaults, all the gold, and marble, was almost too much to take in.

We left Madame Tussaud's for the last day. During the 2 hours we spent there we made numerous pictures and admired the very realistic vax figures. We saw the members of the royal family, and many famous writers, politicians, movies stars, and athletes. And of course, everybody's favourites, the cast of Star Wars. On a small train that was adorned with the logo of our Magic Lamp, we traveled through the streets of London, from the 17th century to the present, getting a little taste of the atmosphere of London in different eras.

Then we returned to the hotel to have a little rest before heading to the airport. (We would like to thank the hotel for their hospitality.) We recalled the countless great sights we had seen and these wonderful 4 days. The girls were talking about the many marvels they had seen and all the fantastic experiences, and how they could hardly wait to share their memories with their families, friends, and classmates.
We arrived back to Budapest just after midnight, exhausted, but full of fantastic experiences.

We would like to thank the support of the FGSZ Földgázszállító Inc. and private donors, also the help of the students and teachers of the British International School , among them especially the scouts of the 1st Budapest Brownies Unit of BISB!

Evelin's dream was to swim with dolphins. Please read her own words about her unic experience:

I spent the most amazing four days of my life on the beautiful island of Malta between the 26th and 29th of May 2018, with a group.

The excitement began on the first day because I flew on an airplane for first time in my life. I had been looking forward to it very much but had been a little bit afraid, too. The flight was 2 hours long. Two Hungarian families were waiting for us when we arrived.


While they were preparing lunch for us, we had an opportunity to take a dip in the sea. It was wonderful. After lunch, we checked in into our hotel. We settled in and went into town where we had lunch in a Turkish restaurant. Everybody like the food a lot.

Next day was the day I had been waiting for so eagerly. After breakfast, a small bus picked us up and took us to the Malta Marine Park.

First Hédi, Kinga, Peter, and I swam with the dolphins. I cannot even describe how amazing it was since I had been dreaming about it for so long. Afterward, we watched a seal show, which was also great.
After the dolphin show, Nandi had an opportunity to pet the dolphins since he did not swim with them.
On the way out we stopped in the souvenir shop where we all got some toys and pictures about our dolphin adventure.

After we got back to the hotel we splashed around in the pool. We had dinner in the city again, but this time directly on the seaside, which was beautiful. We managed to find some ice cream that even I was able to eat.
Next day we went on a boat trip. The boat stopped at two places where we could swim. I enjoying swimming in the open sea very much. We got back early evening. We had dinner in the city again, this time it was pizza. After dinner, we went into a little shop to buy some typical Maltese sweets for the people back home.

Next morning we quickly rushed down to the sea to say goodbye. After that, we packed our things and headed to the airport. We arrived back to Budapest early afternoon.

We would like to say a very special thank you to Mellow Mood Hotels, Firstmed-FMC Kft. and our private sponsors especially to Veronica, Andrew and their friends for making this wonderful experience possible. We would also thank the Hungarian colony on Malta for their amazing hospitality.

Szonja is a smart, cheerful girl who is also open to others. She was already waiting for me at the staircase when I got tho their home.

She welcommed me and showed the way immediately to her room. I saw there her bed wich was one of her dreams.It was full of her favourite stuffed animals but we managed to sit on it and try it. Szonja told us about a camp where she had a really good time ther previous week.

When she got home, her new bed was waiting for her. It was covered with a beautiful blanket so it matched the nice princess stickers on the walls. The matching desk she got with the bed still needs to be assembled but when it’s ready the little girl’s room will be perfect.

Szonja was really happy with the gift and she was grateful that her wish came true.


We would like to thank Ms.Dori Garcia Diaz and her kind collegues, our private supporters for helping her dream come true.

I met two excited girls at the airport. They have never flown and stayed in a hotel. Nóra and Ramóna have spent three fantastic days in Disneyland.

They enjoyed the flight, the hotel, to swim in the swimmingpool of the hotel, to travel by TGV, to jump with a parachute, to travel by different trains, by switchback railway, by boats, to drive a car, to fly on a rocket, to visit Aladdin's cave and to visit the different souvenir shops. Of course we have seen the fireworks in the park at 11 o'clock in the evening." It was great," said the girls.

They took part in different attractions several times. They enjoyed the Hollywood Studio as well.
They were very happy when some photos were taken with Pluto and Goofy. They often said: "It is fantastic, it is great. Many thanks to Magic Lamp"

The three days were full of adventures The girls enjoyed everything in spite of some "unwanted adventures" like our plane was delayed 35 minutes later in Budapest, then there was a strike of the TGV workers in Paris and our flight home to Budapest was cancelled...



We are very grateful to our supporters, Mr. Dennis A. Diokno, Euro Disney Associes S.C.A., E-ON Földgáz Trade Zrt. and also to our private supporters, who helped to realise the dream of Ramona.

After a month long stay at the hospital, Cinti had to get her medical examination. She was so excited that she saw us immediately.

Fulfilling her wish had a tricky start. First, we had to chase for electricity and then for IT experts. But at the end, everything worked out. Cinti was really happy with her new laptop and she couldn’t wait to use it.

Timea is a quiet, smiley young girl, who even upon the first encounter with the gin told him she would like a smartphone.

She, unfortunately, had to spend extended amounts of time in hospital and time passes slowly when you are surrounded by the walls of the hospital. She misses the conversations and fun with her sisters and friends. It’s easier to get through the hours, days, with a fun game or video from the internet. All of this can be achieved through a smartphone!

Due to her treatment she looked at me a little nauseated when I stood next to her bed in the room. At first she just thought I was here to talk, but when I started to fiddle in my bag, shew was exited and the tension rose. Not before long a little box appeared housing a large screen Samsung Galaxy smartphone. It was even in the color she wished for.
At first she didn’t even believe it, that her wish came true so quickly. At first she just played around but then she begin to explore all the smart and some not so smart features of the device.

We wish her a lot of jiy in the usage of her new phone.


In the name of Timea we would like to thank the Batschka Fundation and the Lurdy Ház for their support!

To grant the wish of this 10 year old boy we arrived with the help of our supporters. Since the giant trampoline waited in its original packaging for us. Therefore the people from our supporter Schneider Electric, Marosvölgyi Teréz and Molnár Anita helped us to assemble it with the further assistance of the colleague.

Barna was very happy to help and was really excited to see his wish come to life. But there was more as the company also had a little surprise for him. The family very much appreciated the help of this local company, and what they did for Barna.

They found a lot of familiar faces and he tried it out after assembly with great joy and pleasure.

The 15 year old Mate is a quiet, intelligent youngster! He is really attached to his brother. They really miss each other especially when Mate is in hospital for longer periods of time, as he is recovering and healing.

The two brothers really enjoy playing the PlayStation and they of course have their favorite game as well. This is why when I asked what they would like to receive after a brief second of hesitation, he wrote down the name of his favorite game and the exact type of PS he wanted. The gin came to the rescue as his mother couldn’t afford this gift for him.

And the gin like before, listened and after a short while delivered the PS4 Pro and the best game to accompany it.

Mate’s mother arrived at the hospital for the control testing. They had no idea what surprise Mate was in for. Just as they were heading out of the door I stopped then and said that have something I would like to give Mate.
And there appeared a large box housing his gift inside. The pale boys face turned to red as he blushed with excitement His eyes glittered from passion and pure joy. He tore the box open and when he saw what was inside the lean to my ear and quietly whispered “Thank you”!

Dear Mate!
I wish, that you have a lot of joy in the game and get well as soon as possible.

Istvan’s hobbie is basketball, and his favorite team, is the Zalgiris Kaunas. He wished to go to one of their matches, his biggest dream was to see them in the real action.

After a long journey we arrived at Lithuania. The waiting only increased the suspense and the excitement continued to rise.

We were amongst the first to arrive at the grand stadium which could house up to 15 thousand people, where it was still silent. But that did not last for long, as in a short period of time the stadium filled and the ambiance increased. Fireballs, whistles, drums, ovation and waving lasted for more than 2 hours.

Istvan shouted and blasted for the whole match as he enjoy every bit of the already tight game. I believe we were enriched and humbled by this once in a lifetime experience.

Hedi’s only had one wish, she wanted to swim with dolphins. For this event to take place we traveled to Malta.
Upon our first encounter, I was already amazed at Hedi’s incredible capacity for hope and her open personality. I knew I was dealing with a courageous youngster who knows exactly what and when she wants to achieve, and she does all that with serious charm.
As expected, in the dolphins house, she followed the instructors to the very last move with incredible precision. Every second of the encounter was a huge experience for her which she loved to the end.
She indulged in Malta, she took part in a boat tour where she could enjoy the open sea and the sea breeze while swimming in the sea. There was a pool on top of the hotel which she took great joy in as well and during the evening she closed the evening with some delicious ice-cream.



In the name of Hedi we would like to take this opportunity to thank Deutsche Wirtschaftsclub Ungarn our leaders, our companions, as well as our numerous private supporters, such as the Budapest Thomas Mann Gymnasium-Deutsche Schule teacher’s, students and parent’s for their help, as well as the Hungarian colony of Malta!

Gyönygi really loves music, so she asked for a left-handed, starter, acoustic guitar from the charity. This is how she remembers her wish coming true:

„My name is Gyöngyi, I am 14-and-a-half-years-old girl and I’ve had a medulla transplant. I spent a month and a half in a sterile box, but now I have to visit hospital twice a week from home. I have been studying music since nursery. I first played the flute and then the clarinet. I’m the second clarinet player at the Abony Small Woodwind Band. I have wanted a guitar for a very long time.

On one of my visits to the hospital, I was surprised by a visitor at the Démétér House. I was very happy when I spotted the guitar in her hand. I was wondering if she was going to give it to me. When she did, I eagerly but carefully took the instrument out of its case. I admired it back to front.

Kitti asked me to play the first chords, so I did. After she gave me the gift we talked for a long time about my time in the hospital and my plans and dreams. Kitti and I clicked instantly, and evem my grandmother, my teachers and one of my friend’s mums joined the merry conversation.”


We would like to thank Schneider Electric for their support and Kutasi Kitti for agreeing to take part and being there in person.

Gergő instantly knew at the hospital that he wanted a garden playground with a slide. The 3-4 months of winter passed by quickly and he was very excited to receive the news, that soon the climbing frame and slide would be built.

When the big day finally arrived, after the playground had been built and we officially gave it over, he immediately tried the swings with his brother and said he was very very happy!

The whole family is grateful to the charity, we hope that we have helped contribute to a speedy recovery.
