About us
People like you help Make-A-Wish® bring lasting, positive change into the lives of kids with critical illnesses. Your support makes it possible for us to grant their wishes, giving them a reason to stay strong through treatments and to believe in the promise of a better future. Though we grant a wish every 34 minutes in the United States, we need to grant a wish every 18 minutes to serve every eligible kid. Every single person who supports us by donating, volunteering or referring a child can be part of our mission. Find out more at va.wish.org.
