About Make-A-Wish® South Dakota & Montana
Make-A-Wish South Dakota & Montana creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. We seek to bring the power of wishing to every eligible child because every step of the wish journey can help children build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight their illness. Together with generous donors, supporters, staff and nearly 230 volunteers, Make-A-Wish South Dakota & Montana has granted more than 2,400 wishes. For more information about Make-A-Wish South Dakota & Montana, visit wish.org/sdmt.
How to Refer a Child
Every day, we rely on wish referrals from caring individuals to help us reach more kids with critical illnesses and grant their life-changing wishes. Children with critical illnesses between the ages of 21⁄2 and 18 who have not received a wish from another wish-granting organization qualify for a wish. A medical professional, family member, parent or the child with a critical illness can make a referral. Visit wish.org/sdmt/refer to make a referral or email make an inquiry.
