World Wish Day 2023

It's So Much More Than Just a Wish
On April 29th, 1980, one boy's wish ignited a spark that became a global movement.Â
Today, over 500,000 wishes later, every wish has the power to create hope, renew energy and provide a child with the strength to fight their critical illness. It can even help pave their path to recovery.Â
And it doesn't stop there. A wish impacts everyone who touches it and helps make it a reality. The connection, optimism, inspirational generosity and kindness surrounding a wish can change hundreds of lives. Maybe even yours.Â
This World Wish Day, we invite YOU to take action and make a difference for wish kids.Â
