Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Children & Youth, Children & Youth Services, Health, Human Service Organizations, Human Services, Patient & Family Support, Pediatrics
Programs: We grant one personal, heartfelt wish for every child in our territory between the ages of 2 1/2 and 18 years old who has a life-threatening medical condition, as determined by the child's own physician. In 2016, we granted 275 wishes for children within our territory - arkansas, north mississippi and west tennessee. These wishes impacted over 1,000 people directly in our primary program - the wish child, their family, the wish granting volunteers, and the wish sponsors who participated in the unveiling of the wish. Total wishes granted for the fiscal year were $2,922,404. Of this amount, $472,582 was contributed by various vendors who provided in-kind contributions. Additionally, the chapter provided support to other chapters through the national wish fulfillment fund in an amount of $25,000.
