Children's Wishes & Dreams is a 501-C-3 non-profit organization, that is solely operated by volunteers (No Paid Employees), serving the Yakima Valley and Walla Walla areas. We grant wishes to local children who have a life-threatening illness OR severe life-altering injury. We are the only organization in Washington to grant wishes to children with severe injuries. Each location works for the children in their area only, the money stays at their location.

From Miss Heidi:

“Our hearts were warmed again by the generosity and the hard work that created the donation from Sort 4 The Cause of $26,500. This donation will help make several smiles as we grant more wishes from this wonderful contribution to our cause. We are so grateful to them for supporting our cause and helping to make more smiles with each wish granted.

Heartfelt thanks to each and every one of those who worked to put it together and participated in the event.”

Heidi Anderson, Executive Director

More smiles to share with you!! On Friday Miss Heidi and the volunteers presented Ezekiel and his family with items they'll need for his trip to Disneyland! Oh and since he is a big fan of Goldfish Crackers, the company sent off a package for him to take on his trip!

We are grateful to you, our donors and supporters, for helping us bring smiles to kids like Ezekiel. Thank you for everything you to help our mission!

Your generosity is helping Brenton's wish trip to Disneyland come true! Brenton, his mom and little brother received a send-off today at Wellness House for their upcoming family trip. Brenton and his brother each got a backpack full of items to make their trip extra special. We could not be any happier to see Brenton's wish come true.

Children's Wishes and Dreams would like to thank donors past and present for helping us to bring smiles to children in our valley like Brenton. We couldn't do this without you, so thank you very much!

Again, the Sort-4-T-he-Cause has amazed us with another huge donation from their tireless efforts to raise money for 3 charities – Heartlinks, Wellness House and Children’s Wishes & Dreams, we each received $25,000 to help our various causes.

They work tirelessly to put this event together every year and help us to further our missions. In the last 13 years it is hard to count the number of wishes that they have been a part of with their donations.

We thank them for their time and hard work and dedication to doing for others.

Our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all of you.
