FROM THE LIMO RIDES AND CHARTERED FLIGHT TO THE CHARACTER-FILLED PARTIES AND PRINCESS MAKEOVERS, THE TRIP IS NOTHING SHORT OF MAGICAL.

THE BERT'S BIG ADVENTURE FAIRY GODPARENT VOLUNTEER PROGRAM SUPPORTS THE ORGANIZATION'S FAMILIES WHEN A BERT'S BIG ADVENTURE CHILD IS ADMITTED TO A PARTNER HOSPITAL.
