Wishes for Children with life-threatening illnesses, and so much more
Heroes of the Month
Spread joy, laughter, and hope to brave kids who have survived tough and often tragic life circumstances. Through our Heroes of the Month program, you can help us honor children between the ages of 3 and 18 who do not have a life-threatening condition, but who are in the care of hospitals, shelters, and other facilities nationwide. We surprise them with teddy bears, T-Shirts, certificates and gift cards. This program makes a difference in the lives of children who have suffered through life-altering circumstances nationwide.
Lifetime Wish
You can be part of helping us grant wishes to children between ages of 3 and 18 who are in the fight of their lives. We take the time to get to know each child and their family so we can personalize ever wish to their unique interest. These wishes could be theme park trips, celebrity meet-and-greets or even shopping sprees. Our professional and caring wish coordinators are involved in every aspect of creating memorable, life-giving experiences.
A Child Forever: Honoring the Legacy of a Child
The loss of a child is one of the most devastating experiences a parent can endure, disrupting the deep role of protection, care and guidance that defines parenthood. Many families are left not only emotionally overwhelmed but also financially strained during the memorial process. Through the Child Forever initiative support helps provide funeral assistance to families of Wish Kids who have passed away, ensuring each child is honored with a respectful and meaningful memorial while reminding parents they are not alone.
Project Toy Drop
Project Toy Drop creates miles of smiles as we travel across the country, delivering new toys, games, clothing and other much-needed items to children ages 3 to 16 who need joy and hope. You can get involved in strengthening our communities, spreading joy to at-risk children and honoring the children of military families. There’s no better time than the holiday season to let the spirit of giving shine.
Holiday of Hope
In November and December, most families are decorating their homes, shopping for presents and planning holiday feasts. But not all families. There are children across the country who will spend the holidays in the hospitals or shelters fighting overwhelming circumstances. Holiday of Hope delivers new toys, games, clothing and other much-needed items to children ages 3 to 16 who are in the care of a hospital or other facility.
C.L.A.S.S.
Get involved with a peer-to-peer philanthropic opportunity where students partner with Kids Wish Network to learn about children facing challenges of health conditions or life circumstances. The C.L.A.S.S. (Creating Laughter And Spreading Smiles) program connects students, schools and youth organizations with the power of a wish. It’s a memorable experience for both students and Wish Kids.
