Andrew Ventura, a 4-year-old from Sarasota, Florida, received a camper from Make-A-Wish Southern Florida during a visit to Camping World in Pinellas Park. Andrew, who has leukemia, wished for a camper after watching the cartoon Peppa Pig, which helped him pass time during cancer treatment. The organization said Andrew has spent much of his life indoors due to his illness and the COVID-19 pandemic, and the camper will allow his family to make outdoor memories together.
