Granting Wishes

Wish Granters is a nonprofit organization located in Boise, Idaho. Here, we make a lasting impact in the lives of Idaho families by granting wishes to adults who have been diagnosed with a non-age-related terminal illness, or potentially terminal illness.

Most of these wishes are heartfelt; being able to touch, feed, and watch your family ride a Clydesdale horse; or as simple as a Wish Bag full of items that allow the recipient the comfort, independence, and dignity that they deserve.

Wish Granters Mission

Wish Granters mission is to improve the quality of life of terminally ill Idaho adults and their primary caregivers, by granting them wishes and by supporting projects in their local communities, thereby providing opportunities for these adults and their loved ones to have lasting memories to cherish forever.
Wish Granters is the only adult wish-granting organization in Idaho currently serving Ada, Canyon, and Gem Counties. Wish Granters does not receive any State or Federal funding and relies on donations from our generous community members, businesses, peer to peer fundraisers, and fundraisers.

A shout out to our recent wish recipients and their family members. These are a few photos of recent wishes. Our Wish Program continues to provide wishes to adults facing a terminal illness.

Granting Wishes, Giving Hope and Creating Lasting Memories. Thank you for your continued support.

Ina’s wish was to take a trip to McCall with her family. She also wanted to do some fishing while she was there. Our thanks go out to the Atkinson family who took her fishing on a pontoon boat on Cascade Lake and to DoneRight Management who donated the cabin for Ina and her family.

Kelly’s wish to get up close and personal with elephants came true at the Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City. Kelly got to help feed the elephants, and she and her family received a tour of the zoo as well. Thanks to Hogle Zoo, Alpine Home Medical, and the Hampton Inn in Salt Lake for their help in making Kelly’s wish come true!

Kika’s Wish was to go to Las Vegas with her family. The entire family had a wonderful time together and made lasting memories.

Joe’s Wish was to have the waterfall he built for his wife fixed. Joe passed away before seeing the wish completed, but he wanted it to be done for his wife, and we made that happen. Many thanks to Stephen Dalien for all his hard work in making this wish come true.
