Make-A-Wish® Stories

If you received a wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation®, helped grant a kid's wish, or just have a great story to tell about a Make-A-Wish experience, please share that story here. Tell us how it impacted you and feel free to upload any related photos, video, or artwork.

We highlight as many of the great wish stories that we can; however, due to the high volume of stories submitted, we cannot guarantee that your story will be selected. You will receive an email notification if your story is showcased on our website.

We are proud to showcase authentic voices and stories of wish experiences. We only make minor edits when required for spelling, brand name and trademark accuracy, protection of wish kid and family privacy, and some celebrity and corporate sponsor references.
