We often get asked: how does a child get referred to Make-A-Wish® Canada?⭐Every wish is unique and different, just like every child. That’s why our team is here to connect with each family and help guide them through the enitre wish process.

A wish can be a powerful reminder that there is still so much to look forward to. 💙✨This #WorldMentalHealthDay, we’re celebrating the power a wish brings to a child and their family.

At 12 years old, a rare brain tumour changed his life. But there was one thing he never stopped thinking about: baseball. Alongside his treatment, his doctor prescribed one more thing: Throw the first pitch at a @bluejays game!⚾ #childhoodcancer #torontobluejays #makeawish

A wish can take many forms. It can be an adventure, a dream brought to life, a chance to step into someone else’s shoes, a moment with a hero, or an opportunity to give back. 💙✨

At 17, Édouard’s wish to meet his Canadian volleyball heroes came true. 🏐 After receiving a heart transplant that gave him a second chance, this passionate volleyball player lived his dream: training with @volleyballcanada Men's National Team. #MakeAWishCanada

At just 3 years old, Madison already knows what she loves most: princesses, magical adventures, and spending time with the people she loves. 👸💙 So when it came time to make her wish, there was no question. Madison wished to visit @waltdisneyworld with her family!

Some moments become memories a family will treasure forever. Maddy's wish was one of them. ✨ When Maddy wished to meet @IAmSteveHarvey and attend a live taping of @FamilyFeud, her family knew it would be special. They never imagined just how meaningful it would become.

Aidan's wish came true at @MonsterJam Hamilton! 🏁🚨 At 16, Aidan lives with kidney disease—but that didn't stop him from experiencing the full VIP treatment at one of the most epic shows around. #MakeAWishCanada #WishGranted #MonsterJam

A wish is more than a moment of joy. It brings hope, confidence, and strength when a child needs it the most. 💙 Right now, more than 3,500 children across Canada are waiting for their wish to begin. Together, we can help change that.

There’s something about ice cream that makes a moment feel even more special, especially on National Ice Cream Day! 🍦Did you know? At the @GKTWVillage Ice Cream Palace, there is such a thing as unlimited ice cream, and it’s available ALL DAY LONG! 💫

Armando's summer began with a wish: a beach getaway for him and his family. When the moment arrived, joy erupted and lasting memories were made. A wish transforms not just a moment, but an entire family's journey. #MakeAWishCanada #WishesMatter

This year we were honoured to welcome two young wish recipients and a veteran who travelled from across the world to experience The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth through @MakeAWishCA and @promisedreams. From Natasha seeing the fireworks light up the night, to Oscar meeting his relay racing hero and riding bareback on Shadow, to David finally checking the Calgary Stampede off his lifelong bucket list after a cancer diagnosis, each visit was filled with unforgettable moments. What made the biggest impact wasn't just the Rodeo, Midway or Evening Show - it was the kindness, generosity and western spirit they experienced every step of the way. Thank you to everyone who helped make these once-in-a-lifetime dreams a reality ❤️
