About Us

Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Switzerland and Liechtenstein is dedicated to making a real difference in the lives of children aged between 3 and 18 who are living with a life-threatening medical condition. We turn children's wishes into reality, making the experience truly magical and memorable. A "wish" is a child's answer to the question "If you could have anything in the world, go anywhere, be or do anything... what would you choose? What would you do?"

A wish can provide a magical and empowering interlude in difficult times. Our children are energized by a wish, by imagining it, describing it, planning and anticipating it. Families tell us that a wish can encourage a child to see a future to fight for and then to fight on. Our foundation is child-focused, family friendly and community based. The joy of the wish experience and understanding of its powerful therapeutic value for each child and their family is paramount.
