For seriously ill children, life is made difficult by the severity of their illness and treatment. Emotionally and physically exhausted, children can take a break from the daily grind of their illness thanks to the Wishing Journey, rediscovering a part of their childhood.

Solution
A Make-A-Wish® wish is more than just a gift or a magical day; it's a real adventure, meticulously planned, designed to accompany often heavy medical treatment. Each wish is a unique expression of the child's personality.
Received by volunteers trained in Make-A-Wish® values, it is the fruit of attentive listening, while respecting the privacy of families. Encouraging the child to express his or her wish, imagine it and see it come to life creates positive experiences and lasting memories.These unique moments foster resilience and help the child adopt a more optimistic outlook on the future.

Thanks to your generosity, the entire wish-fulfillment process is covered:
- Meeting the child and the experiences leading up to the big day, which help the child look forward to it with optimism
- Personalized wish planning
- Logistics for the big day: transportation, meals, lodging…
- Activities related to the wish: meeting a role model, going on an adventure, traveling, etc.
- 100% coverage of all costs: the family is not responsible for any expenses.
Thanks to you, every wish becomes much more than just a gift: it is a source of hope, strength, and energy for the child and their loved ones.
