Rainbow Society of Alberta

Rainbow Society of Alberta Giving the gift of hope by granting wishes for children in Alberta diagnosed with a severe chronic or life-threatening medical illness. A Child. A Wish.

A Dream Come True! The Rainbow Society of Alberta began in 1986 by a handful of caring volunteers who saw a need to bring a strong support system to sick children in Alberta. Registered under the Alberta Societies Act on November 21, 1986, as the ‘Rainbow Society for the Welfare of Sick Children of Alberta’, the society obtained independent charity status in January 1988, through both the provinci

al and federal governments. In 1992, our name was officially changed to The Rainbow Society of Alberta. All funds raised are used to grant wishes for children right here in Alberta. Along with children who have life-threatening conditions, we also grant wishes for children who have severe chronic medical illnesses. A child who is asking for a wish may have spent over half of the last year, or even half their lives, in the hospital. They have undergone medical procedures that would make grown adults weary. Their families have been by their side through it all, and are anxious and worried. A wish can give them hope. It can give them strength. It can let them know their community is doing what we can to help them get better. The Rainbow Society of Alberta, Edmonton Office
