Mission

Kids Wish Network is a nationally recognized charitable organization dedicated to infusing hope, creating happy memories, and improving the quality of life for children. Kids Wish Network fulfills the wishes of children ages 3 to 18 with life-threatening medical conditions. Through our gift-giving Holiday of Hope campaign, Kids Wish Network brings toys, entertainment, celebrities, and a much-needed break from medical treatment to children in hospitals across the country. Kids Wish Network's Gift Bank Program provides hospital emergency rooms, pediatric wards, and other children's care facilities with age appropriate gift bags and offers a much needed distraction from often traumatic experiences. Our Funeral Assistance Program helps families of our wish kids who have passed away by lifting economic burdens and ensuring a proper end-of-life ceremony.
