Facts about Make-A-Wish Australia
Make-A-Wish® Australia creates life-changing wishes for children with a critical illness.
Since 1985, Make-A-Wish Australia has granted over 11,000 unique, inspiring and extraordinary wishes across the country.
Make-A-Wish Australia is currently supporting over 900 kids on their wish journey, so every dollar raised is crucial.
For everyone involved, wishes have a remarkable, uplifting, and positive impact—well beyond the wish itself.
Make-A-Wish Australia receives no government funding and relies on the wonderful support of the community to help make wishes come true.
Each wish is as unique as the child themselves.
Our goal is to raise $5000 for Make-A-Wish.
