Click here for a video of a Make-A-Wish event on the High School Musical 2 set.

All proceeds from the event will benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of New Hampshire. You can be a part of the growing excitement and help us reach our 1,000th Wish – and Beyond! Wishes take many forms, but the common thread to all is that they are the heartfelt desire of a child facing a life threatening illness. Whether digging for dinosaur bones, a magnificent tree house, or writing and producing a movie complete with a red carpet premiere, Wishes can be big or small – and they each make a tremendous difference. The most common feedback we receive from donors and volunteers alike is how remarkable it feels to see the sparkle in a child’s eyes as they receive their Wish. Support the Make-A-Wish Foundation of New Hampshire and be a part of this milestone moment… and the many moments beyond.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation® of New Hampshire began in 1986 and granted its first wish in 1987. The Foundation has a 15-member Executive Board, and five staff members; CEO, Director of Development, Director of Wishes, Wish Coordinator Assistant and Office Assistant. Their goal is to make wishes come true for all NH eligible children.

The New Hampshire Chapter has brought joy to close to 600 children! Their most popular wish is to visit the Central Florida Walt Disney World attractions, which makes up about 70% of NH wish requests. Some wishes are as expansive as a trip to see cheetahs play in the wild or as simple as a picnic on the beach.

Children who are between the ages of 2 ˝ and 18, who have been determined by their physician to have a life threatening medical condition, may be eligible for a wish. Out of respect for the children and families served, and out of concern for their privacy, children who may be eligible to receive a wish can be referred by one of the following: Parent or legal guardian, the wish child, or medical professional.”
