Description

Join us in celebrating the 40th anniversary of the Guelph Wish Fund for Children, a beacon of hope and support for our community since 1984. For four decades, we have dedicated ourselves to granting 'wishes' and providing vital support to children battling significant illnesses, life-altering injuries, or rare and debilitating syndromes.

At the heart of our mission lies the belief that every child deserves to feel cherished and valued. Over the years, we have crafted over a thousand unique experiences, tailored to the individual interests and needs of each child we serve. From fulfilling dreams of meeting favorite celebrities to providing essential medical equipment that enhances their quality of life, every wish fulfilled is a testament to the power of community and compassion.

In honor of this momentous milestone, we are thrilled to present our fourth annual online auction—an event that truly makes a difference. Running for 10 days, our auction features a stunning array of items generously donated by our supportive community. From exclusive experiences to coveted items, there's something for everyone to bid on and win! 

What sets this year's auction apart is our incredible growth. Thanks to the dedication of our staff and volunteers, our audience has expanded exponentially, now reaching over 6,000 individuals globally. This means your generous contribution will not only directly impact the lives of the children we serve but will also receive prominent recognition among our ever-expanding network of supporters.

In past events, our online auctions have drawn in over 2,000 enthusiastic bidders. This year, we aim to take it even further by reaching out to our now 6,000-strong global audience through various channels. By participating as a donor, you are not only supporting our cause but also gaining visibility and appreciation from a large and diverse community.
