Our Partnership With Merlin Entertainments
Merlin’s Magic Wand is a Foundation is the US-based Children's Charity partner of Merlin Entertainments Limited Group (“Merlin Entertainments”). We work closely with Merlin Entertainments’ attractions to deliver the magic of amazing brands such as LEGOLAND®, Madame Tussauds and SEA LIFE Aquariums to eligible beneficiaries.
Merlin Entertainments donates 100% of the Magical Days Out tickets to Merlin’s Magic Wand so that we can share the magic of the attractions with eligible families and other charitable organizations all over the world. Merlin Entertainments also makes an annual donation towards our operating costs, which means that more of your donations go straight to our charitable programs.
“Thank you so much for your generous support of our little family! This is a joy beyond belief and alleviates a little bit of hardship that comes with a child on the spectrum that has a tough time communicating.
A smile is happiness in any language, and I know that is what this gift will bring my little guy. Thank you!”
