A planned gift—whether through a bequest, retirement plan, life insurance policy, or another arrangement—ensures that future generations of children will continue to experience the life-changing power of wishes. It’s a way to balance your personal financial goals while creating a brighter future for children who need it most.

It only takes one simple sentence to include Make-A-Wish in your will or living trust. Here’s an example to share with your attorney:

"I give the sum of $___ (or ___%) to Make-A-Wish Foundation of the Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana, Inc., 12625 Southwest Freeway, Stafford, TX 77477, Tax ID 76-0116615, to be used or disposed of as its Board of Directors deems appropriate in its sole discretion.”
