Disney Wish Granting

The Walt Disney Company has a long legacy of supporting children in need, dating back to the opening of Disneyland park in 1955.

Through our Disney Wish program, we work with nonprofit wish-granting organizations that make wishes come true for children with life-threatening medical conditions. Every year, we proudly fulfill thousands of wishes at Walt Disney World, providing kids and their families with magical, memorable Disney experiences at a time when it’s needed most.

Disney Wish Program

More than 155,000 Disney-inspired wishes have been granted since 1980 through Make-A-Wish. Through the experience of wishes coming true at Walt Disney World, children with critical illnesses and their families find the hope and joy needed to confront and overcome the challenges of tomorrow.

Wish Requests

All wish requests must be submitted through a federally registered 501(c)(3) wish-granting organization.

Due to the large number of requests we receive, we are unable to provide vacation packages or offer discounts at Walt Disney World Resort hotels to individuals. It is preferred that families reach out directly to one of the nearly 250 wish-granting organizations around the world, whom we support.
