Kids for Wish Kids® The Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Orange County and Inland Empire is happy to announce a program specially designed for schools and youth organizations interested in raising funds to help turn dreams into reality for children in our community.

Teachers and parents often serve as advisors, but ownership of the project belongs solely to the kids involved.
