Latrice
Today’s Fairy Godparent spotlight belongs to the wonderful Latrice! Here’s what she has to say about her Fairy Godparent journey so far.
“I started in 2018. God blessed me with a servants heart, so signing up to be a Fairy Godparent was a no brainer for me. My baby brother was disabled, which makes it easier for me to relate with the kiddos and their families.”
“I was invited to Khairi’s bell ringing once he beat cancer. The joy that filled that room was so heart warming.”
“Last year, Abby spent Christmas in the hospital. She was craving chocolate chip cookies. So, I made her a large chocolate chip cookie in the shape of a gingerbread man.”
“We also made a gingerbread house and painted nails. Although she had spent a great deal of time in the hospital that year. She was excited and grateful for that time we spent together. She is always so positive no matter what she is going through. What a sweet little angel.”
Thank you, Carter’s Charitable Foundation for sponsoring our Fairy Godparent Program and a heartfelt thanks to Latrice for being such an incredible friend to our incredible kiddos! Will you join us in showing her some extra love and appreciation?
Thank you, Carter’s Charitable Foundation and Latrice!

Launched in May of 2010 through the Carter’s Charitable Foundation, our Fairy Godparent Volunteer Program supports Bert’s Big Adventure’s children and their families through the stress and uncertainty of hospitalizations. The beloved fairy godparents visit Bert’s Big Adventure kiddos at partner hospitals daily throughout their hospitalization, bringing toys, activities, food and a much-needed break for the entire family.
In addition to the Fairy Godparent Volunteer Program, Carter’s also provides a team of volunteers at the Disney Send-Off Celebration and Family Reunion Adventures throughout the year. Because of its strong support and unwavering commitment to Bert’s Big Adventure, Carter’s has become a trusted teammate, helping Bert’s Big Adventure accomplish more each year.
As a token of our appreciation, we’re going behind the scenes of our Fairy Godparent program and bragging about a volunteer every first Friday of the month! Won’t you help us in making them feel extra special and loved?
