How to Refer a Child for a Wish


Any child between the ages of 2 1/2 and 18 with a life-threatening medical condition may qualify for a wish from the Make-A-Wish Foundation. To maintain the privacy and comfort of the families we serve, we only accept referrals from three sources:

Medical professionals treating the child including doctors, nurses, social workers and child-life specialists
The child's parent or legal guardian
The potential wish child

All medical information remains confidential and is not disclosed to third parties unless it is required for the wish and consent is obtained by the parent(s) or legal guardian(s). To learn more about referring a child from Alaska, Montana, Northern Idaho or Washington, please contact the Foundation's wish & outreach manager, Spring Tart toll free at 800-304-WISH.

If you are a qualified referral source and would like to make an initial referral online, please click here.
