A wish is forever … join the Make-A-Wish Arizona Alumni Community!

Our Make-A-Wish Arizona Alumni Community is a diverse group of nearly 8,000 wish kids and their families who connect with one another through the incredible impact of a wish experience. A wish is part of a wish kid and their family's life forever, and when the time is right, we encourage you to find your way to make the next wish possible. Whether by sharing your story, attending an event or helping raise necessary funds, another child is waiting for their wish to come true, and they need your support.
