Make-A-Wish North Texas Join us in granting wishes for children with critical illnesses across north, east, and west Texas. and abroad.

Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. We want to provide children with the hope for better times, the strength for the tough times and the joy to experience the present. The North Texas Chapter has granted more than 10,000 wishes since our inception in 1982. Make-A-Wish North Texas is part of the nation's largest and most well-established wish-granting organization, with chapters and volunteers throughout the U.S. We draw on that strength, as well as our vast local network, to make a child's dream a vivid and memorable reality. Every fulfilled wish represents a unique collaboration between wish families, medical professionals, volunteers and donors. Make-A-Wish provides the structure, but it is the child's request that determines what we will do. Sharing Our Story

💙 Today is El Paso Giving Day! Your support helps grant life-changing wishes for local children like Adler, creating unforgettable moments of hope, strength, and joy for the entire family.

Since his leukemia diagnosis in 2024, 11-year-old Adler has endured more than 26 months of treatment. Through it all, his love for adventure and spending time with his five brothers has never faded.

This March, Adler's wish to go on a safari came true at the San Diego Safari Park! From seeing incredible wildlife up close to making memories with his brothers, Adler and his family enjoyed a much-needed escape from the challenges of his medical journey.

As his mom shared, “It was surprising to find out how much a wish could bless our family.”

Today, 60 children in El Paso are still waiting for their wishes. Your gift can help more families like Adler's experience moments of joy and togetherness when they need them most.

✨ Give today at https://elpasogivingday.org/organizations/make-a-wish-foundation-of-north-texas and help us end the wait for local wish kids!

70 wishes. 70 kids. 70 reasons to celebrate August. 💙⭐

For some wish kids, August meant setting sail on an Alaskan cruise. For others, it meant heading to Disney, picking out everything on their shopping spree wish list or taking the next step toward their future with a scholarship.

No two wishes look exactly the same, but each one is designed around what brings a child hope, joy and something incredible to look forward to.

Swipe through for a glimpse at the 80 life-changing wishes granted in August. ✨

What a way to tee off a new tradition! ⛳💙

This past Monday, we celebrated our inaugural Wish Upon a Par Dallas golf tournament and an incredible milestone in our work to end the wait for wish kids across North Texas.

At the heart of the celebration were Becky and Gary Donovitz and the Donovitz Family Foundation, whose transformational $1.25 million gift to our Two Years, Too Long campaign is helping us move closer to a future where every eligible child receives their wish when they need it most.

A special thank you to Becky and Gary, along with Kim and Jerome Elenez, for co-chairing our inaugural tournament and helping make such a meaningful day possible. And to every golfer, sponsor, volunteer, wish family and supporter who joined us—thank you for showing up for our mission and the children we serve!

And the Donovitz family’s generosity doesn’t stop there. ✨ Tomorrow is North Texas Giving Day, and thanks to a generous $150,000 match from the Donovitz Family Foundation, every gift can go twice as far in helping us end the wait.
Becky, Gary and the entire Donovitz family, thank you for your extraordinary belief in the power of a wish and your commitment to helping more children move from waiting to wishing. 💫

Join us tomorrow and double your impact this North Texas Giving Day. Give today at https://www.northtexasgivingday.org/organization/Makeawishntx.
