Everybody has a wish

Wishes of seriously ill children fulfilled by the Golden Fish.

 

The Story of the Golden Fish

Let us tell you the story of how the Golden Fish grants wishes of seriously ill children.

Whenever kids are ill, their parents do everything they can to get proper care for them. All of the focus is on medical care.

No wonder they have no more means or energy to spare for anything that is not really urgent!

The Golden Fish is there to help kids forget that they are ill and allow them to enjoy – together with their loved ones – moments of joy and happiness.

Because we all have wishes, don´t we...

Every child dreams of something else as there is no limit to a child´s fantasies.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Want to become an Indian or a race car driver?

Dream of exploring distant places?

Or maybe you simply want something?

It could be that you want to meet with someone you admire?

Or you wish to make someone else happy?

The Golden Fish grants one wish of any seriously ill child from 5 to 18 years.

We understand that having a healthy child is your greatest wish. Unfortunately, that does not fall within our powers. We do not raise money for families or children, and we cannot provide medical devices or aids.

 

Who helps the Golden Fish?

We commit to fulfil your wishes caringly, with dedication and compassion. Do not hesitate to contact our team.

Director and Donor Care

I take care of the Golden Fish and her team. I make sure she is healthy, growing and a source of joy for more and more children. I enjoy spreading her message and talking to people who support her or plan to do so.

Tomáš Hornek

Tomáš Hornek

Dep. director

My expertise in Information Technology serves as an asset in my work with The Golden Fish. My skills allow me to pull together and fulfill even the most diverse dreams and wishes. This work is not only a big opportunity for me, but also a great responsibility.

Donor and supporter care

Through donations and contributions that help Golden Fish fulfill even more children's dreams, people from the "outside" can also become part of our mission. My job is to guide them on how they can support Golden Fish and at the same time care for those who have already found their way to us.

To have the opportunity to look into the world of children's fantasies and wishes is beautiful. But to be able to make those wishes come true is simply incredible!

Comm. with children and families

My job is to help the Golden Fish to make children's wishes come true. Children and their wishes are a great motivation for me and a driving engine for my work. In fact, I am fulfilling my own dreams here, working with the Golden Fish.

Meeting children who think about their desires and wishes - in short, they dream, fills me with great admiration. Being in the process of dreaming and the subsequent fulfilment of those wishes is an adventurous voyage full of strong emotions.

Children's imagination is a place full of all sorts of wishes. My task, together with the Golden Fish is to enter this beautiful world of fantasy and let them take me through it.

To be a part of Golden Fish and to have the opportunity to participate in the fulfillment of children's greatest wishes is a dream come true also for me.

Comm. with children and families

Golden Fish puts a smile on children's faces. My job is to talk to children about their wishes and dreams. It's wonderful to watch children think about their dreams, and their joy of having their wishes come true is also our joy.

IT

I am part of the magical world of Golden Fish, where my IT skills help seriously ill children make their wishes come true. I also provide technical support to my colleagues to ensure the smooth running of their work.

Lucie Pekárková

Production

In Golden Fish I do office and implementation work. I have fulfilled my wish coming to the Golden fish and the other I keep filling when the dreamer wishes to capture the fulfilment of the wishes in the photographs. The whole process charges me with enormous energy.

To find possible and impossible for our creative dreamers, is the content of my work with the Golden Fish. But when we need to build a gazebo in the garden, my colleagues can also rely on me.

Tomáš Cahel

I perceive the Golden Fish as one big story and each of our dreamers is a separate chapter in it. Through my work, I also become a co-author of this work.

Helping the Golden Fish fulfill the greatest wishes of our dreamers fills me with great joy every day. There is nothing better than seeing the bright eyes of children who have had their big dream come true.

Matěj Čermák

Production

What I enjoy most about working at Golden Fish is when, after receiving a child's wish, I can start working on it. Then I "rest" during manual work - whether it's building a room or transporting a dream gift to the dreamer.

I sail into known and unknown waters to help the Golden Fish find every current, every ripple that will carry her to the ears of all dreamers. Being able to make other people happy is a great joy. To be playful while doing it is a dream come true.

From the Life of Golden Fish

"Do you even realise, what you're doing? Do you know how much adrenaline and endorphins this boy just got thanks to you? Do you know how excited is he going to be for the next seven months and how he is going to talk about this with everyone? No IV fluids could ever recreate these kinds of positive feelings."

"It's a break, away from the hospital setting into a world of fantasies and adventures. That's how I see it from my point of view as a mother."
