What is World Wish Day?

World Wish Day history
The Make-A-Wish Foundation was founded in 1980 after a young boy named Chris Greicius wished to be a police officer. His wish inspired others to start granting wishes for terminally ill children and the Make-A-Wish Foundation was born.
Since then, the Make-A-Wish Foundation has granted over 350,000 wishes worldwide. World Wish Day is celebrated annually on 29th March to commemorate the day when the first-ever Make-A-Wish Foundation grant was made.
