One of our students wanted to shine some light on the wonderful efforts of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. 

Make-A-Wish creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Our mission is to grant the wish of every eligible child – a quest sparked by the belief that a wish is integral to a child’s treatment.
