Make-A-Wish Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana

Make-A-Wish Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana Together, our mission is to grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses throughout the Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana.

Offices in Stafford, TX and New Orleans, LA. Mission Statement
Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Wish Impact
We are on a quest to bring every eligible child’s wish to life because a wish is an integral part of a child’s treatment journey. Research shows children who have wishes granted build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a criti

cal illness. This improves their quality of life and produces better health outcomes. A wish transforms the lives of children, their families, volunteers, supporters, medical professionals, and entire communities. Wishes are Granted Worldwide
Make-A-Wish Texas Gulf Coast and Louisiana is one of 57 chapters throughout the United States and its territories. Since our chapter’s inception in 1984, we have granted over 12,300 wishes, and, during our fiscal year 2025, we granted 650 wishes. Make-A-Wish is the world’s leading children’s wish-granting organization, serving children in every community in the United States and in 50 countries worldwide. Since 1980, more than 650,000 wishes have been granted to children worldwide. Who does your donation serve? Children from 47 counties in the Texas Gulf Coast area and all 64 parishes of Louisiana benefit from the efforts of this Make-A-Wish chapter.

Summer is one of the busiest and most meaningful times for wish granting. ☀️ With school out and families able to travel and spend more time together, children facing critical illnesses have a unique chance to create joyful, lasting memories.

Right now, nearly 1,000 children are waiting for their wishes—more than at any other time of year. And locally, we’re working to grant nearly 300 wishes in the next few months.

Through our Summer of Wishes campaign, your gift can make an immediate and meaningful impact—bringing hope, strength, and joy to children like Amelie when they need it most. 💙

Now is the time to help turn these wishes into reality. ✨ Donate today at https://my.onecause.com/fundraiser/organizations/sf-0013c00001qMjqtAAC/fundraisers/fundraiser:86abb7ad-7beb-4880-a777-15b683a08da3

This , meet Max, aka “Gordo”!
This bright and lovable 4-year-old has a big imagination, an even bigger heart, and a huge passion for anything on wheels—especially monster trucks! 😊

Gordo’s one true wish to attend Monster Jam has officially come true! From getting up close to the trucks to imagining himself behind the wheel, he couldn’t be more excited—especially when it comes to his favorites: Megalodon, El Toro Loco, T-Rex, and Grave Digger. 🦈🔥🦖 As Gordo says, “the trucks can fly!”

A heartfelt thank you to our corporate partner, Gexa Energy, for helping us celebrate Gordo and turn his wish into an unforgettable experience. 💙

Thank you to the incredible teams at AP Dodson, LLC and Lynn Levy Land Company for making Isabella’s wish come true last Friday! 💫 Sweet Wish Kid Isabella is a brave 4-year-old from Loranger, LA, who has been battling leukemia. Her one wish? A backyard playset with a slide! 😊

We are so grateful to have both companies as part of our Builders of Hope Committee. We truly couldn’t do what we do without our compassionate and dedicated partners! 💙

This , we're spotlighting corporate partner Waste Connections of Texas - Houston who recently celebrated wish kid Danny and his upcoming wish to visit LEGOLAND! 💙

Even before his diagnosis, Danny had been dreaming of a LEGOLAND trip with his family—and throughout his medical journey, that dream has been something special to hold onto. When he’s not planning his future adventure, you can find him building his favorite LEGO sets (especially Ninjago).

Waste Connections hosted Danny and his family for a LEGO-filled wish celebration—complete with his favorite foods, a surprise LEGO backpack, and even a few spirited rounds of co****le (one of Danny’s favorite activities!). ☺️

Thank you, Waste Connections of Texas - Houston, for celebrating Danny and helping build excitement for his big wish ahead! ✨

Today we’re celebrating 4-year-old Israel and his incredible Disney wish! 💙 Israel loves the movie Luca, enjoys playing basketball, and zooming around with his toy cars. As soon as he arrived at Disney, Israel couldn’t wait to meet all the characters—and was especially excited to ride the teacups. 🫖 From exploring the parks with his family to running around and laughing with his sisters, Israel made unforgettable memories every step of the way!

"Thank you for everything, we had an amazing time. Israel said it was the best days of his life." – Israel’s mom

🌞This summer, we’ll grant more than 75 Disney wishes—the most magical (and busiest!) time of year. ✨ You can help make these life-changing moments possible!
