A wish experience can be a game-changer for a child with a critical illness. This one belief guides us in everything we do at Make-A-Wish. It inspires us to grant wishes that change the lives of the kids we serve. It compels us to be creative in exceeding the expectations of every wish kid. It drives us to make our donated resources go as far as possible.
Most of all, it's the founding principle of our vision to grant the wish of every eligible child. Wishes are more than just a nice thing. And they are far more than gifts, or singular events in time. Wishes impact everyone involved - wish kids, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities.

Together, we create life-changing wishes for kids with critical illnesses.
We are a nonprofit organization that helps fulfill the wishes of children with a critical illness between the ages of 2 ½ and 18 years old.
The entire family is included in the wish experience and there is never any cost or obligation to them!
A wish creates an indomitable spirit within our wish children to help sustain him or her through extremely difficult times, in hopes that miracles can be achieved.
