CWFI FAQs

Children’s Wish Foundation is able to fulfill wishes through the loving support and generosity of individuals and corporations who care about the happiness of seriously ill children.  Corporations often include contributions to us in their annual budget, or may choose to give through a special fundraising event or promotion with their product. All contributions are tax-deductible

Individuals may give annually, or may choose to donate in lieu of a gift honoring a birthday, wedding, holiday or in memory of a loved one who has passed away.

Children’s Wish Foundation International doesn’t claim to be the biggest wish fulfilling organization, just the best. The services and personal attention we provide our families are unsurpassed. Wish Families praise us for our professionalism, attention to each detail, and the extra mile that is given to personalize each wish. However, we know that all of these efforts would be impossible without the support of individuals and corporations that choose to contribute to CWFI. We make it easy for our donors to give in many ways, and can even restrict a contribution to be used in a particular city or state, or for an individual child the donor chooses from the current Wish List.
