Adopt-A-Wish®
Everyone involved in fulfilling the wish of a sick child is touched by the magic of the experience. . .magic that brings hope, strength and joy to children and their families during a difficult time. A wish is something precious to look forward to and can make all the difference to a sick child and their family.
By adopting a wish, you too can be part of the magic. When you, your company, professional club, or student group chooses to adopt a specific child’s wish, you have the opportunity to become connected to the wish experience. Every wish is a unique and memorable experience for the wish child, the wish family and all those who participate in the wish. And many donors say they began their support of the Make-A-Wish Foundation® and its endearing mission after hearing a child’s memorable wish story.
The average cost of a wish is $6,000. Your donation of $2,500 to $5,999 makes you a Wish Sponsor. Wish Sponsors fund a wish in concert with other Wish Sponsors. Or with a donation of $6,000+, you can be a Wish Maker, and fully fund a child’s wish.
Now you can help create more heartwarming stories for children with life-threatening medical conditions through the Make-A-Wish Foundation of America Adopt-A-Wish program. This giving option allows donors to fund a single wish experience in its entirety. The Make-A-Wish Foundation covers all costs associated with a wish, including transportation, food, lodging and admission fees for the entire family. We will provide you with a special story about your adopted wish so that you can see how your contribution brings joy to a courageous wish child. Some of the wishes available for adoption are shown below:
