Transform Lives, One Wish At A Time
A wish experience can be a game-changer for a child with a critical illness. This one belief guides us in everything
we do at Make-A-Wish®. It inspires us to grant life-changing wishes for children going through so much. It compels
us to be creative in exceeding the expectations of every wish kid. It drives us to make our donated resources go as
far as possible. Most of all, it’s the founding principle of our vision to grant the wish of every eligible child.

Wishes are more than just a nice thing. And they are far more than gifts, or singular events in time. Wishes impact
everyone involved—wish kids, volunteers, donors, sponsors, medical professionals and communities. For wish kids,
just the act of making their wish come true can give them the courage to comply with their medical treatments.

Tens of thousands of volunteers, donors and supporters advance the Make-A-Wish vision to grant the wish of
every child diagnosed with a critical illness. In the U.S. and its territories, a wish is granted every 34 minutes.

100% of the children who medically qualify as confirmed by their doctors receive a wish, so long as they are
between the ages of 2½ and 18 at the time of their referral and have never received a prior wish from any
wish-granting organization.

Since the founding of Make-A-Wish® Wisconsin in 1984, more than 7,200 families have experienced the
transformative power of a wish across the state. This year, more than 450 children are waiting to receive a wish.
