Waiting for Wishes

Each and every day, there are thousands of children across the nation who are diagnosed with life-threatening illnesses. These children face countless hardships and need the joy of a wish.

Meet our Wish Kids and read their remarkable stories.

Want to Help?

Kids Wish Network grants wishes to children from ages 3 to 18 who suffer from life-threatening illnesses. We also grant special “Hero Wishes” to children facing life-altering circumstances while in the care of our partner facilities.


What Wish Recipients Think:

I just wanted to let you all know how much I am proud of everything you guys do. When you granted my wish a few years ago, my life couldn't have gotten any better. Keep up the good work!!!” Justin, Wish Kid

You guys just don’t know how I appreciate the things that you did for my daughter. It had me in tears, but I couldn’t let her see me cry because she wouldn’t understand that they were happy tears. I had no clue that this would happen so soon. It’s truly a dream come true. Thank you!” Jaykayla’s mother
