Partner With Us - Gaming

Throughout the year, Make-A-Wish deliver programmes and activities with the games industry aiming to meet the growing demand for games-related wishes from critically ill children, which have surged by more than 400% in recent years. There is an urgent need for us to raise more funds and develop networks to grant these wishes. Requests can include; consoles, custom PCs and laptops, experiences meeting their gaming heroes, becoming a designer or games tester for a day or bringing them closer to their favourite games.

Gaming is a lifeline to the young people we serve.

Be part of the magic

Our Wish 200 Week in the summer brings together games developers, studios and publishers, agencies, investors, creators and online communities to raise funds to grant 200 wishes for critically ill children.

"Since 2021, it has been a joy to see the gaming community coming together to grant wishes for fellow gamers. Seeing the past Wish Week campaigns, I am proud to be part of an industry that is using its power to help others. As a Patron of Make-A-Wish, I know the charity is facing another huge challenge and I hope the industry will once again help them rise to this challenge and change the lives of seriously ill children."
