A spark of hope can ignite a world of possibilities for a child and their family. This hope can be found in a wish. A wish begins with hope – and hope begins with you.
Every year, Make-A-Wish chapters and affiliates come together in celebrating World Wish Day on April 29, the anniversary of the wish that inspired the founding of Make-A-Wish. When you help grant a wish, you restore hope for a child and improve their mental well-being. This legal holiday is sponsored by the Make-A-Wish Foundation - an organization dedicated to making the wishes of terminally, not well children come true.
A child who has reached the age of 2½ and is under the age of 18 at the time of referral who has a critical illness is potentially eligible for a wish.
