Raise money for Make-A-Wish Australia

Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.

Along with the national office, eight regional chapters grant magical wishes to children in need from coast-to-coast. Make-A-Wish Australia is an affiliate of Make-A-Wish® International, the largest wish-granting organization in the world, making dreams and wishes come true for more than 480,000 children since 1980.

There are several wish-granting organizations in Australia, and we are often asked about what makes us different. People say, "Why should I give to Make-A-Wish Australia instead of a similar organization?" Click here to find out how Make-A-Wish stands out from other wish-granting organizations.

The Impact of a Wish

When children are battling a critical illness, so much of normal childhood is taken away from them — it is exhausting, both emotionally and physically. A Wish is something that gives kids the opportunity to look outside their illness — it restores a sense of childhood back to the child and normalcy back to the family.
