Who We Are?
Beyond the Pappus was formed with the initial mission of granting wishes to children/youth, ages 3 - 18 years of age, who have experienced the death of an immediate family member. Our foundation values the importance of remembrance and a community of support after a loss, while our vision is to be a leading provider for healing.
Our Walk to Remember is a unique opportunity to visit Verona Park with others and make a difference!
Beyond the Pappus, Walk to Remember...
"I wish to watch Messi play!"
When meeting this young man, he reflected on how he used to watch soccer matches with his father and how much he misses these moment. His wish was to watch Messi play and that wish became a reality when he was able to attend the Argentina vs. Chile game at MetLife Stadium. Your continued support and donations make it possible to grant these very important and special wishes.
Your Support Continues to help our Cause!
"One of the best parts about this trip was it was all planned for me. Since Dee passed I have had to do and plan absolutely everything. It was a wonderful trip and a memory we'll have forever!" -Sunny (mother of three wish participants)
"I wish to see AJR live in concert!"
Our wish participant had "the best day ever" getting to see her favorite band that was also her older brothers. After his passing, AJRs music continues to connect them in a very special way.
