...through<br />

making a child’s<br />

wish come<br />

true...<br />

David Barth<br />

“My sister has struggled since childhood<br />

with the effects of polio. I’ve seen firsthand<br />

the adversity she has had to face<br />

with each new day.<br />

“Through my fund, I can help other<br />

children meet the challenges of their<br />

disabilities, just as my sister has, and<br />

find enjoyment in their lives. Children<br />

are our future, and I want to do everything<br />

that I can possibly do for them.”<br />

David Barth established the David R. Barth Fund, an<br />

endowment, in 1988 to reflect his commitment to the<br />

care of children who are sick or have disabilities. A<br />

Special Wish <strong>Foundation</strong>, which grants wishes to<br />

children who have been diagnosed with a life-threatening<br />

illness, is one of the organizations his fund is set<br />

up to support.<br />
