Start fundraising for Make-A-Wish

Celebrate your birthday, do a sports challenge, or honor a loved one.

Set up your fundraiser following the five simple steps below.

Your fundraiser should reflect what you care about, and the money raised goes towards granting wishes for children living with critical illnesses. We will provide the tools you need to help you succeed including a fundraising page so you can focus on doing what you love to help wish children to experience their wish.

Every fundraiser helps Make-A-Wish bring hope, strength, and joy to children who need it most.

Please note that Make-A-Wish does not distribute any funds raised under the peer-to-peer fundraising to individuals or third-party organizations. All funds raised are used by Make-A-Wish International for our work with children living with critical illnesses around the globe. Our peer-to-peer fundraising function is not a platform for individuals to raise funds for their own needs or other causes.
