Your impact
Every year, thousands of Australian children are diagnosed with a life-threatening illness like cystic fibrosis, a heart condition, or cancer.
Make-A-Wish currently has over 900 kids on a Wish Journey - with every donation, we are one step closer to making the wish of every eligible Australian child come true.
By attending one of our gala ball charity events you’ll help even more unforgettable wishes come true.
Knowing he was given a wish has literally been Jett's reason to not give up. Seeing his smile and feeling his happiness on the day is something I will never forget and treasure forever. If sharing his wish journey reaches only a few new people that may lead to a donation, then that's still one donation closer to someone else's wish and another smile."
