Wish kids need stars like you!

As Make-A-Wish receives no government funding, we're only able to continue to make wishes come true thanks to the generous support of our Wish Force - local communities, partners, volunteers and people like you.

There are more children waiting for wishes than ever before, due to the impact of COVID. You can help make these wishes come true when you support Make-A-Wish.

Creating life-changing wishes

Wishes are designed to complement medical treatment, working to calm, distract and empower sick kids when they need it most.

Every dollar helps create more wishes, which is why your support is so important.

Make-A-Wish volunteers make a life-changing difference every day

When illness strikes, the support of your local community means everything. We're incredibly proud of our 870 strong volunteer network (aka our #WishForce) who operate in almost 60 locations across every Australian state and territory.

Our volunteers raise awareness, fundraise and support local families. They help to capture a sick child’s true wish and bring it to life through all stages of the Wish Journey. They're on the ground and in communities, helping to grant the wishes of hundreds of critically ill children each year.
