The Make-A-Wish Foundation
One of the world’s most well-known charities is the Make-A-Wish Foundation. This charity grants wishes to children who are very sick. The Make-A-Wish Foundation granted its first wish in 1980 to a seven-year-old boy named Christopher, who was sick with cancer. Christopher wanted to be a police officer. The charity made Christopher’s wish come true. He was given a uniform and badge and a helicopter ride. This made the young boy very happy. Since then, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted over 240,000 wishes to children all over the world. Some children wish to meet famous people, to go to exciting places, and to learn new things. The following are some examples of wishes that children have made.
“I wish to be James Bond.”
“I wish to learn to take care of a horse.”
“I wish to swim with a dolphin.”
“I wish to go to the mountains.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation tries hard to make all of the wishes come true.
