Make-A-Wish Texas Gulf Coast & Louisiana creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.
We are on a quest to bring every eligible child's wish to life because a wish is an integral part of a child's treatment journey. Research shows children who have wishes granted build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness. This improves their quality of life and produces better health outcomes.
Make-A-Wish is the world's leading children's wish-granting organization, serving children in every community in the United States and in 50 countries worldwide. Make-A-Wish Texas Gulf Coast & Louisiana is one of 62 chapters throughout the United States and its territories. Since our chapter's inception in 1984, we have granted over 8,200 wishes, each one a life-affirming testament to hope, inspiration, and resilience. A wish transforms the lives of children, their families, volunteers, supporters, medical professionals, and entire communities.
