Granting wishes of children and young people aged 3 to 17 living with life-threatening illnesses. The Make-A-Wish Foundation® has no cures to offer and all too often some of our endings are sad, but during desperate times when there seems to be no hope, Make-A-Wish steps in and provides positive, and uplifting relief. Most of all, a wish granted brings a time of magic and joy, for the special children and the families they serve.
