OUR MISSION

Together, We Create Life-Changing Wishes For Children With Critical Illnesses.

Make-A-Wish Canada is an independently operating affiliate of Make-A-Wish international. We create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, and we are on a quest to bring every eligible child's wish to life, because a wish is an integral part of a child's treatment journey. Research shows children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness. Make-A-Wish is the world’s leading children’s wish-granting organization, operating in 50 countries. Here in Canada, we serve children in every community from coast to coast to coast.

Since 1983, Make-A-Wish Canada has granted over 37,000 wishes across the country, over 1,000 last year alone.
