Throughout the trip, each family is accompanied by a Bert's Big Adventure liaison, allowing them to get the most out of their once-in-a-lifetime experience. In 2022, 13 children with terminal or chronic illnesses and their families participated in the five-day, all-expenses-paid trip to Walt Disney World.Desc
