Donate today and make a wish come true

This Christmas, over 900 critically ill kids are on a Wish Journey, just like Ari. You can make sure they don't wait a second longer to unwrap the life-changing gift of a wish.

Your donation today will help spark hope and joy, not just for the wish child, but their family and whole community too.

My wish experience gave me hope, but most importantly, the will to live… It made me realise that I shouldn't give up, or stop moving forward.

How your support helps

When a wish is realised, a child discovers that despite their situation, anything is possible.

Right now, there are more than 900 critically ill children waiting for a wish. You can give the gift of possibility and hope this festive season, creating joy that lasts a lifetime.

Your tax-deductible gift will be put to use where it's most needed, to help make a wish come true for a child facing critical illness.

Make-A-Wish creates life-changing wishes for critically ill children. Our mission is to grant the wish of every eligible child - but we can't do that without your help.
