Chapter History

Our Mission:

We grant the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions, to enrich the human experience with Hope, Strength and Joy.

We are the Northern Alberta chapter of the largest and most well known international children’s wish granting organization which is present in over 30 countries and on 5 continents worldwide. Our national office is located in Toronto; there are 8 wish granting chapters across Canada with trained volunteers dedicated to bringing the magic to children in their community.

We serve the Northern part of Alberta (Red Deer north) and work closely with other ‘Wish’ chapters from around the world for wishes located in our region.

This year we hope to grant 65 magical wishes.
