Since interning with Make-A-Wish in 2018, I've had the privilege of taking wish kids on shopping sprees, seeing their custom playhouses come to life, and celebrating send-off parties for those heading to Disney. Now, as a member of the Young Leaders Board, I’m passionate about continuing to bring these moments of joy to life.

This year, I’ve set a goal to raise $700—enough to help support the magic that makes wishes possible. Every day, over 70 children are diagnosed with a critical illness, and their wishes give them that critical boost in confidence, hope, and strength needed to keep fighting.

When a wish is granted, fear is replaced with joy, and anxiety turns into hope.

Will you help me turn wishes into reality for these children? 
A little bit of hope can truly change everything.

Thank you so much!
