Our global network

After the start of Make-A-Wish in 1980 in the United States, Make-A-Wish International was officially formed in 1993 to serve five countries outside the U.S. – and now helps to serve children outside the United States in nearly 50 countries through its network of Affiliates and Licensed Territories.

The Strategic Intent of Make-A-Wish International is to support and develop our Affiliates and Licensed Territories, individually, as a network and community, in order to ensure their long-term sustainability and growth, so as to progress and enhance the number, the quality, and the impact of wishes.
