Today, we are pleased to share that in a milestone moment, Children’s Wish Foundation of Canada and Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Canada are joining forces with the goal of granting the wish of every eligible child across the country. As one organization, our mission will be to provide children with critical illnesses the opportunity to realize their most heartfelt wish, giving them the strength to endure their treatments and build resilience.

Both organizations have long operated independently with similar guiding missions, visions and values; and every year have provided hundreds of children with transformational wish experiences. The union is the result of extensive, collaborative and thoughtful planning involving expert advisors and leadership from both organizations.
Together, we aim to grant approximately 2,600 wishes in 2022, which is approximately 1,000 more wishes than granted independently in 2018.
We invite you to learn more about our unification at thepowerofonewish.ca.
