We are celebrating our 40th summer of granting life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses across Colorado. Join us as we reflect on the lives that have been transformed over the past 4 decades and as we work to bring the hope of a wish to every eligible child! 

Quinton’s wish was granted in 2016. An avid car enthusiast, his wish was to get in the driver’s seat and learn how to race cars! He spent hours every day for a week on a racetrack in different sports cars! 

"My wish provided me with renewed energy and motivation and made the tough days easier to get through. It made me understand that I was still able to accomplish things despite being sick.” Quinton has stayed involved with Make-A-Wish Colorado, both through an internship and speaking at various events. “My wish made me happy and proud. It made me feel like a normal person again” 

You can support wishes like Quinton’s and our 40th summer of wish granting by donating at wish.org/colorado/donate #wishestransformlives #makeawishcolorado40 #wishestransformlives
