Our Story


Meghan’s wish is named after Guinevere’s friend, Meghan, who passed away in her 20s. She always dreamed of fostering or adopting children but was never given the opportunity. This charity is dedicated to her.

Meghan’s Wish was born in September of 2016, after founder, Guinevere Munib and her family opened their home to children who needed foster care in Denver, CO. She quickly learned that the children being placed in her home came with very little to no possessions. The second child that came to stay with Guin was two years old and the intake worker dropped her off in a diaper, and nothing else. She didn’t even know her name. She had no clothes in her home that would fit a two year old, so she went to Walmart at 2 o’clock in the morning to make sure her new foster daughter would have some basic items such as clothing, diapers, and a toothbrush.

After experiencing this consistently, and hearing from other foster families with similar stories, Guinevere started Meghan’s Wish in Denver, CO with the focus of providing families and children with a twenty-four hour emergency tote bag of clothing, toiletries, toys, books, and a card of encouragement.
