Since 1980, Make-A-Wish has granted hundreds of thousands of transformative wish experiences worldwide. Our organization’s vision is to grant the heartfelt wish of every eligible child battling critical illness. Here across North Texas, we are working to make this a reality in the 161 counties we serve. Wishes are catalysts for hope -- profoundly effective in fueling a child’s drive to defy the odds and push toward tomorrow. Medical research reveals physical and emotional benefits that can give children with critical illnesses a higher chance of survival. When a wish is granted, a child replaces fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope. Families are unified and entire communities are enriched -- the positive impact is boundless. Right now, wishes are waiting! Across our chapter, referrals are at an all-time high and funding determines the rate at which we are able to grant wishes. Your gift of time or money is crucial to close the gap between the number of wishes Make-A-Wish is able to grant and the number we need to grant. It is because of generous donors, dedicated volunteers and valuable partners in the medical community that each wish becomes a reality. Every eligible child needs a wish to count on!

Lynetta’s heartfelt wish was to take a road trip to reunite with her best friend! “They hugged for forever when they saw each other again – Lynetta couldn’t let go!” said LaCambrise, Lynetta’s mom. “It was pure joy. All of us were laughing and crying. To see her that joyful after everything filled my heart.” 💜 This National Best Friends Day, and every day, we’re grateful for you, bestie.
