Yes - at Make-A-Wish, we appreciate everyone who gives generously to help make wishes come true! If you have goods or services you'd like to give, please take a look at our Gifts in kind page for more information about our policy and the types of gifts we can accept.

At Make-A-Wish, we're on a mission to grant the wish of every eligible child in Australia with a life-threatening illness.

We typically don't allocate donations to individual children, illness categories or geographies - in this way, we can maximise our reach and impact, ensuring funds are distributed fairly and where there is currently the greatest need.

Every dollar raised helps more kids get on a life-changing Wish Journey faster.

If you would like to dedicate your donation to someone who is special to you (including a wish child), please let us know on your donation form by selecting 'in celebration' or 'in memory'.

It's easy - give call us on 1800 032 260 or email enquiries@makeawish.org.au with your new details, and we'll be sure to update our records.

Please note, for security reasons, we can’t update your credit or debit card details over email. Please give us a call.

You can update your payment preferences anytime, including the amount you give and date your donation is processed. You can update your details in the following ways:

• Online: to update your credit card number and expiry date only you can visit the secure portal hosted by Stripe
• Phone: you can contact our Community Support team on 1800 032 260 or email regulargiving@makeawish.org.au for all other enquiries.

Please note, for security reasons, we can’t update your credit or debit card details over email. Please call and leave a message if it's after hours, letting us know when to call you back.
