The challenge for a children's charity in Perth

Make-A-Wish Australia currently has over 120 critically ill children in Perth and Western Australia waiting on a wish to be granted. As a charity organisation that receives no government funding, we're completely reliant on our generous supporters and fundraisers, partners and volunteers.

For a child facing a critical illness, a wish and the accompanying journey plays a powerful role in fostering hope and joy, often during the most challenging time of their life. Our mission is to grant the wish of every eligible child in Perth, transforming the lives of local children and their families through the magic of a granted wish.

Watch Emily save Perth city

One of our most inspiring moments came when Emily, a brave wish kid, became a superhero and saved the city of Perth. From police sirens to city-wide missions, Emily’s wish was brought to life with help from the local community.
