About WISHES & MORE

Wishes & More is a Minnesota-based, donor-facing 501(c)(3) children’s wish-granting organization that serves children from birth through their nineteenth birthday who are living with terminal or life‑threatening conditions. The organization grants personalized wishes, provides a $2,000 Scholarship of Hope to wish recipients, and offers a memorial grant program to families who lose a child before a wish is fulfilled.

The organization’s EIN (20-1766318) is confirmed by its publicly available IRS Form 990s and by the organization’s own filings and published audited financial statements. Wishes & More operates statewide in Minnesota and emphasizes locally meaningful wishes (including outdoor and recreational experiences) and ongoing support for wish and memorial families after a wish is granted.

Notable achievements

Scholarship of Hope program

Awards each wish recipient a Scholarship of Hope certificate redeemable as a $2,000 grant for higher education; the program is an ongoing, built-in component of every granted wish and recent annual reports and newsletters list multiple Scholarship recipients each year.

Comprehensive memorial support

Operates a distinctive Memorial Grant program that provides a monetary gift to families who lose a child before experiencing a wish, formally extending support beyond wish granting to bereaved families.

Sustained local impact and volunteer engagement

Has an established history of granting individualized wishes across Minnesota and reports decades of volunteer engagement (including tens of thousands of volunteer hours), sustained by recurring corporate and foundation supporters.
