Join us at Wish Night 2025 and you'll be part of an event that will help grant the wishes for children battling a critical illness. Knowing you are making a difference in the life of a child truly makes this event amazing.

Our goal is to raise enough funds to grant the wishes for 130+ children. If you wish to provide the children we serve with hope, strength and joy please contact us to reserve your table today.

History of Wish Night

In 1994, Les Weil & Jodi Peck put forth extraordinary effort to create Make-A-Wish® Wisconsin’s first gala in memory of their daughter, Kelly Weil, who had recently passed away after a long battle with bone cancer. Thirty years later, Wish Night has grown into an annual highlight of the fundraising calendar.

Wish Night helps fund the wishes of more than 130 children each year and we need your help to make that happen!

Make children's wishes come true

Make-A-Wish Wisconsin's mission is to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. This event features powerful storytelling and lots of opportunities to make the impossible possible. Wishes are far more than gifts or singular moments. Wishes give kids courage, hope and a piece of their childhood back.

Please join us and be inspired by the stories of our wish children and learn about the immense impact a wish can have. There are many ways for you to get involved in this amazing event. Your generosity will help grant the wishes of more than 130 Wisconsin children.
