Wings To Neverland
Wings to Neverland is a heartwarming and inspiring podcast produced by A Chance In Life, a global nonprofit dedicated to empowering at-risk youth through education, leadership development, and community support. Co-hosted by Peter and Wendy, this podcast takes listeners on a journey filled with real-life stories of resilience and transformation. Drawing a creative parallel between the lost boys and girls of Neverland and the young people supported by A Chance In Life, Peter and Wendy explore how children from marginalized communities around the world find hope, healing, and purpose.
Each episode introduces a new story—of children who have faced extraordinary challenges but found their own version of Neverland through the programs and initiatives of A Chance In Life. The hosts bring these stories to life with playful banter, emotional reflections, and a deep passion for the organization's mission. From Italy to India, listeners will hear firsthand from the youth, staff, and supporters who make this magic happen.
Through these uplifting conversations, *Wings to Neverland* showcases how a little bit of support—what the hosts lovingly refer to as "pixie dust"—can change lives. Whether you're a longtime supporter of A Chance In Life or someone looking to be inspired by the power of hope and human connection, this podcast offers a meaningful look at what it means to give children wings to fly.

Ethiopia – 12 Things You (Possibly) Didn’t Know
In this eye-opening and laughter-filled episode of Wings to Neverland, Peter and Wendy take you on a journey to the heart of Ethiopia—a country that’s not just ancient, but absolutely extraordinary. This is the first installment of our new series, “12 Things You (Possibly) Didn’t Know About…”, where we uncover wild, wonderful, and unexpected facts about the countries where A Chance In Life works.
Did you know Ethiopia has a different calendar and tells time differently? That it’s the only African country never colonized? That a goat accidentally discovered coffee? From lava lakes and rock-hewn churches to barefoot Olympic champions, ancient alphabets, and a national legacy of resilience, this episode is packed with awe-inspiring stories and fun facts that will leave you wondering, why didn’t I learn this in school?
But we also go deeper—highlighting A Chance In Life’s impactful programs in Addis Ababa and rural Emdibir, where we’re supporting girls like Rehimush, who went from struggling to buy school supplies to earning her college degree and mentoring other young women.
This episode is a celebration of culture, community, and the power of education to change lives—delivered with the usual Wings to Neverland charm, curiosity, and coffee-fueled enthusiasm.
Listen now and take flight with us to Ethiopia—where history lives, futures are being built, and magic is real.
Second star to the right… and straight on till Addis!
