Zoltán is a dedicated football player who loves kicking the ball from morning till night.
His teammates supported him by not wearing his number 7 jersey until he returned from his treatments.

For him, it was no question what he would ask from our foundation: he wanted to see a live match of his favourite team, Manchester United, in England.

With the help of a very kind supporter, we managed to get tickets to the Tottenham - Manchester United match held at Tottenham's new, modern stadium, and of course, it was a full house.
The fact that we even managed to get tickets was a small miracle in itself, as it is impossible for outsiders to buy tickets for these matches. Only club members can buy tickets in advance, and very rarely are there any "leftover" tickets for non-members.

Zoltán eagerly awaited the match, certainly rooting for his favourite team. In the first half, they were leading by two goals, but the final score was 2-2, so the match ended in a draw.
This did not dampen Zoltán's spirits, as he said with shining eyes that he never thought he would see Manchester United play live.

The surprises didn't end there, as one of the managers at our London accommodation even managed to get Zoltán a prospectus signed by Carney Chukwuemeka, the player who wears the number 30 jersey for Chelsea. Zoltán was speechless with surprise.

As we were getting ready to say goodbye, it was very touching when Zoltán said that the best thing about his illness was that he was able to come to London. He is now starting to learn English again and hopes to return one day to this beautiful city with us.

We wish you a speedy recovery Zoltán, and we hope that your dream of becoming a professional football player comes true.

Regő immediately knew what his wish would be: an experience with his friends. It would have been difficult to choose who is to come so he invited the whole class for a laser fight. It was organised in a few days: the whole class was taken after school from Gödöllő by bus to the spot.

During the afternoon everybody, even the teenage kids got tired but also enriched with a great experience. It is especially important as Regő has to change classes because he had to miss many lessons during his treatments.

This day will remain a fond memory for everybody forever!

We would like to thank the Budapest Marriott Hotel for making Regő’s wish come true!

If Zsófia sets a goal for herself, she achieves it with perseverance and diligence. This is also true for her current big dream. She has long wanted to obtain a driver's license, and the Magic Lamp Foundation has provided her with the opportunity to do so.

Well done Zsófi, we wish you safe driving!

We would like to thank our private sponsors, including the members and leaders of XpatLoop, the most significant Hungarian platform for helping foreigners living in Hungary, that Zsófia’s wish could be fulfilled.

Due to Regina's hospitalization, she will not be able to go to kindergarten or see her friends for a long time. This is the reason she wished for a playground of her own from Csodalámpa so that she could enjoy it in the spring and summer to play outdoors.

Waking up from his afternoon nap, a little sleepy, but with great excitement and joy she loved her brand new playground.




Thank you for the support of Henkel Magyarország Kft. which enabled us to fulfill Regina's wish.

Pistike wished for a playground from Csodalámpa so that he and his brothers could play outside all day long when the weather is good.

We visited Pistike on a weekday afternoon and saw that the children immediately took possession of the playground. When we arrived, Pistike and his brother already were playing at on it. He welcomed us with a big smile. He told us that he loved both the swing and the slide. By summer, the sand pit will be filled with sand and he can build sand castles.

He also revealed that math is his favorite subject at school and showed how fast he can do math in his head.

We are happy that his playground brings a smile to his face every day, which can make him forget the fatigue caused by the treatments.

We would like to thank Henkel Magyarország Kft. for the support that enabled Pistike's dream to come true.

Bence is studying to be a carpenter and would like to continue to do so in the future. In his spare time, he likes playing football and music.

He asked for a DJ console from Csodalámpa, which will allow him and his twin brother to make/mix RIDDIM-style music. In the near future, they only want to perform at house parties, and if they will become successful, they even strive towards bigger goals in this genre.




We thank Henkel Magyarország Kft. for the support that enabled us to fulfill Bence's wish.

I got to know Vanessza as a kind, cheerful, smiling girl who asked the Csodalámpa Foundation for a laptop to help her wuth her studies.

Enjoy using your new laptop Vanessa!

Many thanks goes to manegement of the Budapest Marriott Hotel for their support, that allowed us to make Vanessza’s wish come true.

Mirella lives in a village near the Slovakian border with her parents and brothers.

Sadly she and her twin sister are both suffering from an illness that make walking quite difficult.

Mirella choose a bright red Audi, as her favourite colour is red.

Both girls are very happy that their wish has been fulfilled and they drive around with a big smile, enjoying their new freedom.

Many thanks goes to Cisco Systems Magyarország Kft. for their support that allowed us to make Mirella so happy.

One day, after a lot of thinking, Zita told us that she wished for a laptop.

A few days later I had the chance to give her the desired computer. She was very happy and could hardly believe that her wish had come true so quickly.

We would like to thank Cisco Systems Magyarország Ltd. for helping us to fulfil Zita’s wish!

Zsombor's wish was a tablet that he could take with him wherever he goes, to play games and watch stories on it, even in the hospital.

It's good that he can take it everywhere, because he seems to be really sticked to his gift.

Many thanks for the support of Liferay Hungary Kft. for helping us to fulfil the little boy's wish!

Second-grader Lívia has a medical condition that makes walking difficult and tiring, so she wanted a special bike to make getting around easier. She asked us for a girlysh bike that would take her to school comfortably and that has a small basket to put her school supplies in.

Her wish came true with a beautiful pink bike, which she loved and was overjoyed with.

And so were we when we read her lovely letter.

Dear Magic Lamp!
I am very happy with the bike you gave me. I would like to thank you! Now I can go to school more easily, my schoolbag fits in the basket.

Bianka is now 12 but she was only 11 months old when diagnosed. She got in touch with our
foundation early but she had waited for years to find out what she would really wish for: a laptop. It
will help her in her studies but of course she will use it to keep in touch with her friends and to watch
videos as well. Her wish was sponsored by the Hotel Marriott and it was a unique experience for
Bianka that she received the gift in such a beautiful environment from the director himself.

We would like to thank the Budapest Marriott Hotel for making Bianka’s wish come true!

Gabika spends a lot of time in hospital. During this time, he likes watching fairy tales and playing
online games. He asked for a tablet, which he could easily take with him to the hospital, and which
could also help him with his studies.

The boy was very happy to receive the much-awaited tablet.

Dear Gabika!
We wish you much joy with the gift from the Magic Lamp!

We would like to thank Henkel Hungary Ltd. for their continuous support!

Noémi's big dream finally came true today. Noémi has limited mobility and her wish was a service dog. She and her mum spent a long time thinking about what kind of dog would make Noémi’s life easier and help her with the everyday things. They’ve looked into the subject and found a breeder and a trainer. They then reached out to the Magic Lamp Foundation to make Noémi’s wish come true.

The Magic Lamp Foundation got things going and soon the great encounter could take place. The few-month-old golden retriever met her little mistress, who welcomed her new friend with great enthusiasm and joy.

"They are very attuned to each other and there is so much joy." - the girl's mother described their first meeting.

The dog will now receive in-depth training for approximately 1,5 years, so that she can become a smarter and more skilled service dog. Noémi has become the dog’s official owner.

We wish Noémi and Lucky, the assistance dog, many happy years with each other!

We would like to thank our private donors, among them the generous guests and management of the Corinthia Hotel Budapest that they helped to make Noémi's dream come true!

Nyíracsád, 20th December, 2022.

Máté really likes cars, his dream was a car that he could sit in and drive on his own.

He asked Csodalámpa for a red electric sports car with headlights and flashing lights on all four wheels.

Máté was waiting so much for his supercar that when it was already in front of him and he could finally sit in it, he was shocked and became shy.
After some time he became more comfortable and the "test drive" took place.

We wish Máté a speedy recovery and many car trips!

We thank our private donors, among them the students and teachers of the American International School of Budapest for their support, with their help we were able to fulfill Máté's wish!

Máté is all about music, he attends an art high school, majoring in singing.

He is also learning to play the piano. In addition to playing and listening to music, he also likes to spend his free time playing digital games.

He wanted a computer monitor from Csodalámpa, which he had been waiting for and with a big smile, Máté immediately attached to his computer and tried it out.

Many thanks for the support of Henkel Magyarország Kft., which enabled us to fulfill Máté's wish.

We received Milán's request in early December. His dream was to drive a cool red car of his own at Christmas...

We quickly began to organise everything, and as a result, the little boy was able to drive his brand new BMW just a few days before Christmas.

Milan, use your super car in good health!

We would like to thank Henkel Magyarország Kft. for putting a smile on the face of another sick child!

Marci is a 15-year-old adolescent boy. He is someone you can have great conversations with about anything and everything in life: the important things in the world, combat sports, computing devices, phones, computer games, and everything else. His plan is to work in IT in the future.

When he found out that he too could ask for something from the Magic Lamp, he thought about what he wouldn’t be able to get from anyone but the Foundation. It soon became clear to him that he would like to ask for a laptop that could be used to play advanced computer games and would also serve him well for his future studies.

After many weeks of waiting, the day came when Marci finally received what he wanted so much! He finally became the happy owner of a Lenovo laptop, which, of course, he immediately started using and installed the best programs and games on it.

Dear Marci!

We wish you good health, and that you spend your time in good spirits and usefully with the gift of the Magic Lamp!

We would like to thank the generous guests and management of the Corinthia Budapest, as well as our private donors for making Marci's wish come true!

In the small village of Baranya county, a large package arrived today to the house of Áron’s family.

Inside the big box there was the electric car that Áron had desired from the Magic Lamp Foundation. From now on, the little boy can drive his cool car wherever he wants.

Many thanks to the generous guests and the management of Corinthia Hotel Budapest for making another sick child’s dream come true!
