MAKING WISHES COME TRUE
The holidays are the time to take an extra moment to offer someone a smile or send a greeting, to give a hug or share words of praise. The holidays are special for friends, family and islanders. In our annual Islander Wish Book, we present the needs of deserving organizations in our community. These community groups provide assistance to families and individuals, teach and mentor children, assist the elderly and the less fortunate, all with the goal of making Anna Maria Island a better place to live for all. In The Wish Book, we offer a special way for you to share the holiday spirit and help others.
