MISSION STATEMENT:
Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.
HOW WILL THE FUNDS BE USED TO FURTHER PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT?
Our preliminary wish-granting goal for our 2024 fiscal year is to grant a minimum of 53 wishes in El Paso. Pending funding and changes to travel restrictions, this number could increase. We will continue to work to fulfill wishes safely. Funds would work towards growing our volunteer pipeline and working to grant all the wishes waiting in El Paso.
Mindset and the hope restored by wishes catalyze healing in beating critical illnesses. Seventy percent of Wish kids beat their illnesses and go on to live typical, healthy lives. Your dedication to making a difference in the lives of these children is both inspiring and humbling. We thank you for your invaluable support and for being a beacon of hope for the children we serve. The Science of Hope is a fascinating topic that explores how hope can positively impact the lives of sick children.
