Make-A-Wish-Foundation
The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants
the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to bring
them hope, strength, and joy. Born in 1980
when a group of caring individuals helped a 7-year-old boy names Chris
fulfill his dream of becoming a police officer, the Foundation is now
the largest wish-granting charity in the world. Serving
every U.S. community, the Make-A-Wish Foundation grants more than 12,500
wishes a year and has granted more than 135,000 wishes nationwide since
its inception. Any child between the ages of 2 ½ to 18 who has
a life-threatening medical condition may be eligible for a wish. A child
can be referred to the Foundation by a medical professional, a parent
or legal guardian.
