World Wish Day

April 10, 2010

World Wish Day commemorates the 30th anniversary of the wish granted to a boy named Chris, who wished to be a police officer.  Granting his wish inspired the creation of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and sparked a global wish-granting movement.  Come April 29, 2010, it will be 30 years since that very first wish.  Since then over 185,000 wishes having been granted to children with life-threatening illnesses.  Let's keep the Foundation going for another 30 years and hopefully double the amount of volunteers we have and funds that are raised, so that we can reach EVERY child the is targeted with a tragic illness!!
