More Than A Wish: We’re Multiplying Hope
Several thousands. That’s how many children Kids Wish Network has impacted since 1997, and we’re just getting started. You can help us multiply our efforts to make wishes come true. Your commitment to Kids Wish Network is about more than granting a wish. Every wish we grant infuses hope, creates happy memories, and improves the quality of life for a child experiencing life-altering situations. Are you ready to help us changes lives?
Worth The Investment
While the children we serve represent diverse backgrounds and circumstances, they have one thing in common: they have all faced extraordinary challenges in their young lives. There are many ways to offer them hope.
Give lasting and happy memories..
Support children of military families.
Make holidays brighter and happier.
Create laughter and spread smiles.
Provide comfort to grieving families.
No matter where you’re interested in being part of Kids Wish Network, you can help us lead the charge in bringing much-needed joy to these brave young hearts.
“I don’t think you should be called the Kids Wish Network. I think you should be called the Kids Dream Network because you guys don’t just grant wishes, you make kids dreams come true”

A Brighter Future
Kids Wish Network is aware of misinformation circulating on social media.
It pertains to an article that was published over 12 years ago, which inaccurately portrays our organization with information that is incorrect.
We rely on the generosity of our donors and sponsors to help us achieve our special mission, and do not receive any government aid for any of our programs. As such, fiscal responsibility is paramount for fundraising and program implementation.
We’re committed to our mission, and over the years have continued to positively impact the lives of thousands of children and their families while expanding our programs to exponentially help even more kids struggling with challenges. It’s an ongoing journey for us, and we look forward to continuing all of the celebrations and life-changing happiness that our programs bring.
Kids Wish Network is also committed to transparency, and invites donors and the public to see the direct impact of their support on our website, featuring Kids Wish children experiencing their meaningful wishes.
We also encourage anyone with questions to view our nonprofit status and filings through Florida’s Check-A-Charity tool at: https://csapp.fdacs.gov/CSPublicApp/CheckACharity/CheckACharity.aspx.
We are honored to continue to grant wishes and enrich lives, as we have been doing for nearly 30 years.
A Foundation Built On Empathy
We know the trauma pediatric patients and their families face. Our founders experienced the painful and debilitating cancer treatments firsthand as their family member battled cancer. Out of their experience, Kids Wish Network was born and our first wish was granted.
We expanded our mission when we realized no other organization was reaching kids in life-altering situations due to hospitalization, homelessness, and abuse.
Today, we have six initiatives that are changing the lives of children all across the country.
