Holiday Wish Line! 

Ring in the New Year with Make-A-Wish

Make-A-Wish is proud to bring back a cherished holiday tradition: the Holiday Wish Line. This December, callers can listen to uplifting, pre-recorded messages from children who have faced critical illnesses with courage and joy. During a season that can bring both celebration and stress, the Holiday Wish Line offers a powerful antidote — hope, humor, and heartfelt wisdom straight from wish kids themselves.

From Dec. 8 through Dec. 31, anyone can dial (480) 914-9474 (WISH) to hear uplifting, pre-recorded messages from six wish kids as part of the Make-A-Wish “Wishful Giving” campaign.

Why Wishes Matter:

  • Wishes improve emotional and physical well-being, helping children feel stronger and more hopeful.
  • Most wish kids survive their illness and credit their wish experience with building resilience and confidence.

Featured Wish Kids:

  • Angelito, age 5, courageously battling leukemia, whose heartfelt wish for a charro-themed celebration came to life with music, gifts, and horses.
  • Levi, age 7, undergoing cancer treatment, who reunited with his siblings during a memorable ski trip in the mountains of Colorado.
  • Ruby, age 5, a liver transplant recipient, who fulfilled her wish of publishing a children’s book to inspire courage in others.
  • Braedyn, age 8, living with leukemia, who rediscovered joy and freedom through the simple magic of ice skating.
  • Vera, age 9, living with a respiratory disorder, who received a custom baking station to pursue her aspiration of owning a bakery.
  • Quinn, age 7, facing leukemia, who experienced the excitement of New York City from a limousine and savored a giant pizza along the way.

Proceeds raised through the holiday season will allow more wish kids like Angelito, Braedyn, Levi, Quinn, Ruby, and Vera to experience the impact of a wish.
