The impact of a wish doesn’t end when the wish journey is complete, it lives on through the people who carry that hope forward and use it to create something meaningful for others. ✨ The Starblazer Awards celebrate wish alumni who are using their wish experiences to inspire change and make a difference in their community and beyond. Know a wish alum whose story continues to inspire? Nominate them or encourage them to apply by August 23. 💙 wish.org/starblazer?utm…

Five-year-old Sarah loves horses, but her leukemia diagnosis kept her from the stables. When she learned she’d receive a wish, it brought renewed hope. Sarah wished to be a horse trainer & spent the day riding, feeding & learning alongside her family. 🐎 ☀️ wish.org

After months of cancer treatment, Jonie wished to see all the animals she loves. From feeding a gorilla to a surprise unicorn photoshoot, her wish brought everlasting joy during her recovery. 💙🦄 ☀️ This summer, help give more children renewed hope for brighter days ahead: wish.org

As Gabe underwent extensive medical treatment, he asked for one thing: to be with his family. 💙 His wish to go to his family reunion took him to the beach, where he spent a week surrounded by those who matter most to him.

John Cena on his work with Make-A-Wish and holding the record for the most wishes granted 🥺❤️ “When you agree to something like that, you have to understand what you’re agreeing to. When you agree to do that, you are signing up to be hope. Be the hope.” 🎙️ The Pete Davidson Show

A true pleasure to speak with Pete, not only as a colleague but a friend. We had a lot of fun during this conversation but hopefully learned a lot more about each other and ourselves.

Nominations are now open for the second annual Starblazer Awards.

Ranger Sammy reporting for duty on the first day of summer! 🌲☀️ Sammy’s wish took her to @GrandTetonNPS, where she was sworn in as a junior park ranger. “I really like helping people in nature & being a ranger is basically both of those things wrapped into one!” – Sammy 💙🌟

Three years ago, Jackson’s wish to have a train room was inspired by time spent with his dad searching for trains during long hospital stays. 🚂 And today, his dad continues to Wish It Forward by photographing wish moments for other families to cherish. Happy #FathersDay!

#Juneteenth reminds us to honor freedom, hope and possibility. That spirit feels especially meaningful alongside #WorldSickleCellDay & Elijah’s story of creativity, strength and imagining what comes next. “[My wish] makes me feel stronger, smarter and happier.” – Elijah 💙

Aedan and Angelena, two Make-a-Wish kiddos, attended a mini camp practice this week and were able to hang out with the guys afterwards! We hope you had the best time ❤️

The sooner a wish is granted, the sooner a child can replace fear and uncertainty with hope and possibility. 💫 Nine out of 10 of wish alumni say that they felt more joyful, confident and hopeful for their future after their wish. 💙 Help make life-changing wishes come true: wish.org

@NBA_NewYork Thank you for sharing the power of a wish.

Jalen Brunson post Game 4: "Before we start… My thoughts & prayers are with a friend of mine I got to meet last week. Jonathan from North Carolina. From Make a Wish Foundation They asked me to make a video. But something told me to Facetime… I got the pleasure to do so…Quick call but well worth it. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his family… May God rest his soul" (Reporter asks question) Jalen (can't answer): "Sorry…"
