Join the Celebration
A single wish can create hope, renew energy and provide children with the strength to fight their critical illness. It can even help pave their path to recovery.
And it doesn’t stop there. A wish impacts everyone who touches it and helps make it a reality. The connection, optimism, inspirational generosity and kindness that surrounds a wish can change hundreds of lives – even yours.
The World Wish Day Virtual Celebration is your opportunity to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, through your own charity stream, gaming event or virtual fundraiser!
It's so much more than a wish
In the next 20 minutes, a child will learn that they have a critical illness.
And 20 minutes later, another. As long as children face this devastating
reality, they’ll need people like YOU to help them get through it.
Get started today by joining our World Wish Day Celebration on Tiltify
(there's even a toolkit with everything you need to get started).
Share the incredible wish stories in the toolkit – or your own personal “why” and connection
to Make-A-Wish – then invite your friends, family and followers to donate to your fundraiser.
Every dollar you raise will help make a lifelong impact for children facing critical illness.
A child makes a wish. YOU make the difference.

Wish stories
Nia’s wish to have high tea on the beach empowered her to escape hospital walls and make everlasting memories with her family. She spent her wish day laughing, running on the beach, enjoying sweet tea and delicious treats and beaming with joy as she experienced life beyond illness.

Hunter’s Wish Helps Him Build
Confidence and Strength
Hunter's wish to learn how to surf helped him not only escape his daily routine of treatments, but also empowered him to gain the skills he wanted so that he could surf alongside his siblings at home. His wish was also an opportunity for this Florida boy to experience the West Coast and fly in a plane - something he loved! Hunter's wish helped him feel more joyful, confident and hopeful for the future.
