Mile High Magazine 06/01/2025 Make-A-Wish Colorado

Guest: Scott Dishong President & CEO

Make-A-Wish Colorado grants life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses across the state, fulfilling about one wish per day. The first wish ever granted, over 45 years ago, was a trip to Disney. As they prepare to grant their 7,000th wish—to a northern Colorado child who dreams of learning to be a cowboy from professional bull rider JB Mooney—they continue to expand their mission beyond terminal diagnoses to serve all children with critical illnesses.
