Where There’s a Wish, There’s a Way

Make-A-Wish World Wish Day 2019

For children battling a critical illness, a wish is not just a dream. A wish-come-true can be a turning point in their lives. It can give kids the emotional and physical strength to keep going – to fight harder against their illness. Wishes allow children and their families to focus on the possibilities of tomorrow and not on the challenges of today.

Throughout the month of April, in honor of World Wish Day® on April 29, join us as we celebrate the hundreds of thousands of life-changing wishes that have been granted and the thousands still to come. Let’s show the world what wish kids and families already know: Where there’s a wish, there’s a way.  

Learn more at wish.org/worldwishday and follow Make-A-Wish on social media (Facebook, Twitter or Instagram) each #WishWednesday in April for more inspiring stories.
