Pre-pandemic, $10,000 was the average cost of a wish in Connecticut, no matter the type of wish (to go, to be, to meet, to give or to have). All eligible children, like Luke, deserve to receive the hope a wish delivers. Now is your opportunity to give waiting children their heartfelt wishes by donating to cover the cost of an entire wish!

Project wishes, like Cameron's Unified Lounge, cost upwards of $5,000 to grant. Your help today will allow us to safely grant the wishes we can: playsets, pools, spas, room makeovers and so many more. Donate today!

$2,500 is the average cost of airfare for a family of four on a travel wish. We have close to 150 travel wishes in the pipeline waiting to be granted, like Connor's Italian cruise. Your support will help offset the cost of airfare for all these wish kids waiting. Please ensure these waiting wish kids will travel as soon as it's safe by helping to fund this critical part of their wish journeys.

Hotel stays are an essential part of many wishes, whether traveling for a vacation or traveling to meet a celebrity, like Pierce did. The average cost of a hotel stay during a wish is $1,000. Donate today to help provide all traveling wish kids a cozy place to stay.

Nothing can settle an argument like a quick Mario Kart showdown! We often provide electronics and gaming systems to our wish kids who love to escape into another world at the touch of a button. The average cost of a full gaming system is $500. Help us bring the joy of entertainment to our wish kids by donating today.

We know that little touches can make a wish so much more special. Enhancements, such as a limo ride into New York City for Lauren once Broadway re-opens, can bring that extra smile to our wish kids' faces. Limos cost an average of $250 per trip. Help us fund these special enhancements today!

Accessories play a vital role in all the wishes we grant. A gift of $100 can help cover the cost of adorable apparel items - such as the ballet shoes, tutus and recital outfits that Elyana needed for her dance classes. Donate today to help customize every wish kid's wish.

2020 is Make-A-Wish America's 40th Anniversary. Help us celebrate by donating $40 to our mission. Your help today can bring more joy and beautiful smiles, like Chairalis', to wish kids all over the state of Connecticut.
