History
Locally, Make-A-Wish was founded in 1986 by three individuals in Tacoma, Washington. In it's first year, the chapter granted 6 wishes and since then has grown to an organization that grants nearly 400 wishes annually, has a professional staff and hundreds of volunteers who help make wishes possible.
