Critical illness doesn’t take holidays off – neither can we. Right now, thousands of kids fighting critical illnesses are waiting and hoping for their wishes to come true. Because a wish can help improve a child’s quality of life, giving them a better chance of recovering.

As a doctor, I can tell you that wishes change lives. That’s why my role with Make-A-Wish^® is to refer children with critical illnesses fighting medical conditions like blood diseases or cancer. I help to grant wishes – just like you can with your gift today!

Our medical team does a great job taking care of the kids’ physical well-being. But a single doctor can’t see to the emotional and psychological well-being of all our patients. Especially during the holidays. That’s where wishes – and people like you – come in. Will you join us with a gift today that will help grant more wishes this holiday season?

Having a wish experience does a lot to boost their morale, give them something to look forward to and make happy memories to look back on when their treatments are really tough. With your help, Make-A-Wish works with each child to create something really unique and personal.

But wishes all have one thing in common: a wish changes a wish kid’s life forever. Be a hero to a wish kid who’s spending the holidays in the hospital, instead of at home. Give now to bring joy to children fighting critical illnesses this holiday season.

Wishfully,

Dr. Vivian Chang
