Bring Hope to North Texas Children – Your Gift Doubled Today!

Every Wish Begins with Hope

At a Wish with Wings, we’ve seen firsthand how the power of a wish can light up the lives of children facing life-threatening medical conditions. A wish is more than just a moment of joy; it’s a spark of hope that fuels the courage to fight for a brighter future.

Double Your Impact – Double the Hope

This North Texas Giving Day, your gift can have twice the impact. Thanks to the generosity of our friends at Riverbend Consulting, every donation up to $15,000 will be matched, dollar for dollar. Additional matching gifts were made by generous donors to bring the total match to $25,000! That means your contribution will go twice as far in granting wishes and providing ongoing support to our Wish Families throughout the year.

Beyond the Wish – Ongoing Support for Wish Families

At a Wish with Wings, we know that the journey doesn’t end with the granting of a wish. We continue to stand by our Wish Kids and their families, offering support, encouragement, and care long after the wish has been fulfilled. Through regular check-ins, special events, and a community of compassion, we help ensure that the magic and hope of a wish continue to uplift and inspire our Wish Families as they navigate their medical journeys.

Meet Autumn – A Story of Hope and Cherished Memories

Autumn has spent 15 years in and out of hospitals, undergoing multiple surgeries. The wish we granted her wasn’t just a magical moment—it was a life-changing experience for her entire family. As Autumn’s mom shared, “We all felt special, spoiled, and loved during her wish trip. It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that gave us memories we will cherish forever.”

When you choose hope, anything is possible!

Mission

Granting Magical Wishes for young Texans with life-threatening medical conditions since 1982.

Our wings were inspired by a butterfly – but they started with a big bird.

This year, we’re celebrating 42 years giving wings to the wishes of over 1,800 Texas children bravely fighting life-threatening medical conditions.

Founded in 1982, a Wish with Wings was Texas’ first wish-granting agency. The very first wish we granted was a Big Bird backyard playset for 5-year-old Johnny M, and that was only the beginning of a long line of magical moments in the lives of these inspiring children.

From literally hundreds of Disney World family vacations, Hawaii and beach trips, computers, backyard playsets, and shopping sprees, a Wish with Wings has been sharing the gifts of hope, happiness, and promise to children across the state of Texas, and especially right here in and around Fort Worth and Dallas!

Needs

To celebrate our 42nd year of Granting Magical Wishes, help us exceed last year's goal. Our goal of $70,000.00 in 2024 will help ensure that no child's Wish is ever left unfulfilled. In 2023 we granted a record number of 66 Wishes and we are currently on target to break that record in 2024. But we cannot do it without YOU.

We are entrusted with creating priceless memories for these amazing children and their families. But we can’t do it without your support. The sound of a child’s laughter, their smiles and excitement upon receiving a Wish are just a few of the gifts you give our Wish children and their families by being a part of mission and magic of a Wish with Wings. But we can’t do it without you! Your gifts today on North Texas Giving Day will enable us to continue giving hope, joy, happiness and laughter to children facing an uncertain future. Because, when you choose hope, anything is possible.

We make Wishes happen. YOU make them possible!
