Hi Wish Kid! Make-A-Wish Illinois can’t wait to grant your wish! 

This portal will help guide you along your experience.

And once it arrives in the mail, you can also use your Wish Journey Booklet (English; Spanish) to start dreaming. Your caregivers/parents/guardians can read through their Wish Parent Packet (English; Spanish) to learn more about any questions they may have.

You will also receive a piece of the wish token in the mail. The final piece will be shared once your wish is granted. The wish token is something you can hold onto forever to remind you the joy of your wish. Be sure to keep this in a safe place.
