Raise your hand and help wishes take flight

This World Wish Month, be a part of our Airline Miles Drive by donating your Alaska, Delta, or United miles to Make-A-Wish Greater Bay Area. Once donated, miles never expire! As travel resumes, our chapter needs the gift of airline miles more than ever.

Did you know that the cost of airline tickets is our single biggest expense in bringing life-changing wishes to life?

We've been so excited to resume sending wish kids on once-in-a-lifetime trips to places like Hawaii, Florida, Anaheim, New York, and Alaska. Many of our wish kids have been waiting years for their travel wishes to come true and we don't want them to wait a day longer than they have to. Unfortunately, we have already depleted most of our miles bank even as the busy summer travel season rapidly approaches. If we aren't able to use miles, we have to purchase tickets with cash, and the tickets are often expensive!

Help us reach our goal of 250,000 donated miles and send a family of four to Hawaii

Together, let’s raise our hands for wish kids and show our support this World Wish Month. By World Wish Day, April 29, our goal is to have raised 250,000 miles in support of wish kids—enough to send a family of four to Hawaii. A child’s wish helps them build the strength they need to fight, and it doesn’t stop there. Just one wish can create lifelong connection, spread irresistible joy and change hundreds of liveseven yours. Thank you for raising your hand and making a difference for wish kids today!
