Hailee’s adventure starts now! 🎉🎢🏰
For Hailee Whitt, flying for the first time is a magical experience, especially with a destination like Orlando, Florida! She will be staying at Give Kids The World and is most excited to explore The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios!
Hailee, who is bravely battling Hodgkin’s Lymphoma with treatment every two weeks, is eager to embrace some well-deserved fun and create unforgettable memories with family and friends by her side.
