Sponsorship Opportunities

Make-A-Wish Central & Northern Florida is proud to have granted over 8,000 wishes for children with critical illnesses since they were founded in 1994.  Kids like, Holin, who wished to meet and sing with Kelsea Ballerini.  Holin was born with five major heart defects, including a single ventricle warrior.  She has a rare type of epilepsy from a stroke after one of her four open heart surgeries.  She is living with a pacemaker, a paralyzed lung, and frequent seizures.  Although her medical journey is far from over, she is an outgoing 13-year-old, singing, praising, carrying on, and giving back to others. 

ABOUT Make-A-Wish Central & Northern Florida:

Make-A-Wish® Central and Northern Florida create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. We seek to bring every eligible child's wish to life because every child deserves a childhood. Research shows children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight their illness. Together with generous donors, supporters, staff and more than 24,000 volunteers across the nation, Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida and 57 other chapters throughout the U.S. have granted more than 600,000 wishes nationwide.

The results of a the 2022 Make-A- Wish America Wish Impact study indicate that a large majority of Make-A- Wish alumni, parents, and medical providers overwhelmingly agree that the wish experience contributes substantially to physical, mental, and emotional health; and that the wish experience was a necessary part of the medical treatment journey, improved the odds of survival, provided a support system and better health outcomes, and gave the child a better chance of recovering from their critical illness.
