Make-A-Wish® Arizona

Make-A-Wish® Arizona is proud to be the state where Make-A-Wish®, the international 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, was founded. Started in 1980 with one Arizona boy’s wish to be a police officer, our Chapter evolved into a dedicated community of volunteers, donors and Arizona families who have worked together to grant almost 5,000 wishes to date. We continue to be trailblazers, granting 365 wishes - 1 Wish A Day - in fiscal year 2016, a record for our state. And we continue to dedicate ourselves to the Make-A-Wish mission, granting the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.
