Referring a Child for a Wish

Our Chapter grants wishes to children who meet the following criteria:

Are between the ages of 2 1/2 and 18 years (child must be referred prior to his 18th birthday) reside in Oklahoma have not had a wish granted by another wish granting organization, and; meet our medical eligibility criteria (The child's treating physician is the only individual who can determine if the child meets the medical criteria)

Out of respect for the children and families we serve, and out of concern for their privacy, children who may be eligible to receive a wish can be referred by one of three sources:

Medical professionals treating the child - such as doctors, nurses, social workers or child-life specialists a parent or legal guardian of the potential wish child the child himself.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation respects the privacy of the children and families it serves. All medical information is considered confidential and is not discussed with outside parties unless it is required for the wish and the child's parent(s) or guardian(s) have given their consent.
