Make a Wish Foundation

We grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength, and joy.

OUR MISSION

The mission of Make-A-Wish Foundation® is to create hope and happiness for children with life threatening illnesses around the world.

Make-A-Wish® Philippines grants wishes of children in their territory, whatever economic status, gender and religion.

WHO ARE QUALIFIED?

Children who have been diagnosed by their physician as having an illness that is life-threatening, not necessarily terminal, and who are between three and eighteen years of age at the time of referral, are eligible for a wish.

They must be referred to the Foundation and determined to be medically eligible for a wish grant by their physician based on the Foundation’s list of medical illnesses that are life-threatening. The child must clearly express what they wish for. Then the child’s treating physician along with the Foundation make the final determination whether a child’s medical condition qualifies him or her to be a wishchild. More detailed guidelines on eligibility are provided to medical professionals upon request.

Make-A-Wish® does not give out cash donations to its beneficiaries. The Foundation does not give any medical assistance in any form as well.

Adopt a wish today!

Sponsor a whole wish grant, from providing the wish item to enriching the wish experience through wish enhancements.

Through the Adopt-a-Wish ® program, families, friends, and colleagues can grant a wish with the aid of our Make-A-Wish ® foundation volunteers.

This brings hope, strength, and joy to the wish kids and their families, while creating special memories for everyone who helped make the wish come true.

The power of Giving

Make-A-Wish® Philippines is dependent on the generous contributions of individuals, corporations and foundations to help make wishes come true. Your gift makes it possible for us to grant the once-in-a-lifetime wish experience to the children we are privileged to serve in the Philippines.

Without your help, children facing long hours of treatment would not have the wish experience to give them hope, strength and joy. Like children, wishes and donations* come in all shapes and sizes…
