The Make-A-Wish Foundation® is 100% donor-funded.
Last year, more than 50% of our Oklahoma wishes were "I wish to go to Disney World!" The Walt Disney Company has partnered with the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of America for more than two decades, donating millions of dollars and resources every year to make wishes come true. Our "Disney Wish Kids" stay at the very special Give Kids the World. Click here to take a virtual tour of this wonderful resort!
