World Wish Month 2026
World Wish Month celebrates the wish that inspired Make-A-Wish in 1980 and the half a million wishes Make-A-Wish has granted to children with critical illnesses around the world since then. Over 2,000 of those wishes were granted to children in Middle Tennessee! But the work is not done -- in the next 20 minutes, a child will learn that they have a critical illness. As long as children face this devastating reality, there will be wishes to grant to help give them a piece of their childhood back. Throughout the month of April, we are inviting YOU to join our mission and help make more wishes come true in Middle Tennessee.
Check out all the ways you can help make wishes come true through activations by our local & national partners throughout April:
