There are many ways to contribute to the Make-A-Wish Foundation® of the Texas Plains; however, few are as exciting as adopting a specific wish. Through this program, the donor/sponsor of the wish child can be part of the execution and planning of the wish by funding the actual wish. It’s a great way to see exactly where their donations are going and for the public to see how community-minded our local companies, individuals and civic organizations are.

The average cost of a wish is $5,000, however, there are many wishes that cost much less. In other words, if you or your company is interested in funding a wish, there is no shortage of wishes that will meet your budget and tug on your heartstrings.

For more information about the Adopt-A-Wish program, contact Jelaine Workman at jworkman (at) texasplains.wish.org.
