Program areas at Merlin's Magic Wand Foundation
Magical Days Out provided 38,336 tickets valued at $1,593,843 to children facing the challenges of serious illness, disability or adversity, their families, and caretakers. Families have a chance to create long-lasting memories and take valuable time out from their stressful daily routine by enjoying a day out at a Merlin Entertainments attraction.
Working with the Organization's local communities at hospitals and hospices, Merlin's Magic on Tour enables the attractions to bring some of the Merlin magic to children wherever they are.
By designing and creating amazing projects in hospitals, orphanages, learning centers, and more, Merlin's Magic Spaces ensures that local children who are prevented from visiting the attractions due to severe illness, physical disability, or other exceptional circumstances still have the opportunity to experience the unique magic of Merlin.
