The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Central and Western North Carolina has been granting wishes to children with life-threatening illnesses since 1985. Make-A-Wish is a national non-profit organization that started in Arizona in 1980. Since then the organization has grown to have more than 50 chapters nation wide.
Most people only see the wishes being granted, but how does this organization run on a day to day basis. So much goes on behind the scenes that a lot of people don't see. I went to the office for Make-A-Wish Central and Western North Carolina and sat down and asked the employees there a few questions.
Since Make-A-Wish is a non-profit organization, they have to raise their own funds to be able to grant wishes to children. Through fundraisers, grants and donations from individuals and organizations, Central and Western North Carolina was able to grant 213 wishes last year.
This video will showcase what this organization stands for and how they are able to grant wishes to so many children. Through hope, strength and joy Make-A-Wish is able to give happiness to children who need it the most.
