Cancer steals childhood. A wish brings it back. Right now, there are thousands of children fighting cancer in Canada. Every day, they face unimaginable challenges. They need you to help remind them what it’s like to be a kid again, because life-changing wishes like Joey's rely on contributions from generous people like you.

This Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, we need you to give these kids a piece of their childhood back.

Addisyn Embraces Her Inner Fierceness

Addisyn (or "Addi")is a creative and artistic 12-year-old living with cystic fibrosis. Addi idolizes drag queens, who for her represent freedom to be who they want to be without judgement. Addi wished to travel to Los Angeles to attend RuPaul's DragCon and meet her favourite drag stars. Thanks to support from Kensington Tours & Travel Edge, her fabulous wish came true!

Kensington Tours & Travel Edge are Make-A-Wish Canada Destination Partners, helping us grant more travel wishes than ever before for kids like Addi.

We are excited to share the Make-A-Wishh® Canada 2018 Annual Report so you can see how your compassion and contributions have positively impacted the lives of Canadian children and their families.
