Being a national program, regional and state branches create a sense of community and empower representatives and volunteers to be creative by implementing programs to impact more children, and help people realize the value of service to others.
Each branch organizes events, raises awareness and hosts wishes for individual kids, or groups of kids (as in the ranch and hospital programs). The main goal of these regional and state branches is to seek out inspiring kids, highlight their fighting spirits, and brighten their lives.

We would also like to acknowledge one of our own wish recipients Jessica Schmidt, who lends her time as our Wish Family Liaison. She is courageously still battling her illness and is proud to help make other wishes come true!
