For children diagnosed with critical illnesses, a wish come true can be a crucial turning point in their lives. A wish can be that spark that helps these children believe that anything is possible and gives them the strength to fight harder against their illnesses. This impact is why we are driven to make every one of these wishes come true.
Our national office is based in Phoenix, since 1980. Chapters throughout the United States serve every community across the nation and its territories. Make-A Wish International is our hub for wish-granting activities in fifty countries.
