A wish come true brings lasting impact to a wish kid, their family, and entire communities. Many wish kids say their wishes give them renewed strength to fight their illness. Their parents say these experiences help strengthen the entire family. Volunteers feel an increased sense of compassion and desire to help others in their community.Â
Make-A-Wish® creates life-changing wishes for children fighting critical illnesses. Last year, Make-A-Wish granted more than 16,200 wishes throughout the U.S. and its territories. Approximately 27,000 children are diagnosed with a critical illness each year. Your contribution helps Make-A-Wish take one step closer to achieving their vision of granting the wish of every eligible child.Â
Since 2011, Make-A-Wish® has partnered with the Subaru Share the Love® Event, helping generate more than $35 million in donations from Subaru.
