Wishes Forever Fund

Make-A-Wish Iowa grants life-changing wishes to children from all 99 counties of Iowa battling critical illnesses. However, with medical referrals coming in every other day, there are more children waiting in our state than ever before.   

Making a gift to one of our Wishes Forever Funds will ensure our vision continues of granting the wish of every eligible child lives on in perpetuity. Your gift to a community funds below will go directly toward that vision and change the lives of children in your community for generations to come.  

An endowment fund is a permanent, self-sustaining source of funding for our organization. Endowment assets are invested each year and a portion can be pulled out each year to support the funding of wishes in Iowa. Any earnings in excess of the annual distribution are used to build the Fund’s market value, allowing the Fund to grow and support Iowa wishes in perpetuity.
