Every princess deserves a little extra magic in her story. 👑

Through some of their toughest days, Zya, Everly, Audrey and Winnie each had something magical to look forward to: their wish. These moments brought joy, hope and a chance to trade treatment days for tiaras, princess dresses and memories with their families.

This Disney Princess Week, we’re celebrating their courage and the magic that comes from a wish come true. 💙 Walt Disney World

Zane’s curiosity led him somewhere unforgettable. 🐢😊⁠
⁠
Born with a neuromuscular disorder, 9-year-old Zane has always found new ways to explore the world. So when it came time to choose his wish, there was no question: he wanted to become a zoo and aquarium keeper.⁠
⁠
From cleaning algae off Emerald, a sea turtle with mobility limitations just like his, to feeding turtles, spotting Komodo dragons, and finding the perfect stuffed axolotl to bring home, Zane’s wish brought his love of animals to life in ways he never imagined.⁠
⁠
"You don't remember things. You remember experiences. And that's what Make-A-Wish gives to families — experiences." — Michael, Zane's dad 💙⁠
⁠
This summer, Make-A-Wish Arizona is working to help grant 100 wishes in 100 days for local children with critical illnesses like Zane. Your support helps create brighter days and unforgettable memories for wish kids and their families.⁠

💫 As a wish alum, Jackie knows the lasting impact of a wish.

While undergoing cancer treatment during her freshman year of college, Jackie received her wish for a college scholarship through Make-A-Wish San Diego. That experience gave her hope during one of the hardest seasons of her life and inspired her to one day give that same hope to others. 💙

Today, Jackie volunteers with Make-A-Wish Arizona, helping more children become eligible for wishes while pursuing her dream of becoming a physician.

”I want to instill that into other families and other kids as well... to give them something to look forward to — just a moment of happiness and hope.” — Jackie

A wish gives children renewed strength, brings families closer together, and unites communities. 👏💙

Recently, wish kid Christian was celebrated with a special wish send-off surrounded by family, friends, teachers, his wish granter, and even his school's comfort dog and police officer! From pizza and pasta to cannoli and countless well wishes, it was the perfect way to celebrate before his wish came true.
😊

Thank you to our WishMakers at Findlay Prescott Subaru for helping grant Christian's wish and for hosting such a special send-off celebration. ⭐️

⚽ Andrés' wish took him to the FIFA World Cup 2026™.⁠
⁠
For 12-year-old Andrés, courage has been a constant companion. Born with a complex congenital heart condition, he has undergone four open-heart surgeries and countless hospital visits. Although his condition has prevented him from playing competitive soccer, it has never stopped him from dreaming of experiencing the game on soccer's biggest stage.⁠
⁠
This summer, that dream became a reality when Make-A-Wish Arizona granted Andrés' wish to attend the FIFA World Cup 2026™. ⁠
⁠
He traveled to MetLife Stadium to watch Panamá take on England in the first live soccer match he had ever experienced. His wish also marked a milestone as Make-A-Wish Arizona's 9,000th wish granted. 👏⁠
⁠
"It felt like a dream happening," Andrés said. "Thank you for making my dream come true." 💙⁠
⁠
This Summer of Wishes, we’re on a mission to grant 100 wishes in 100 days for Arizona children facing critical illnesses. ☀️ Learn more at the link in our bio.
