WishFund connects children in need of enrichment activities — camps, sports, music, tutoring and more — with generous donors who want to help. Purpose-built, transparent, and coming to Toronto in 2026.
WishFund's founder spent years working for a sports organization. Emails from parents asking for financial help with registration fees, camps and programs were a regular part of the job. Most went unanswered — not because nobody cared, but because there was simply no system to help.
That message didn't get the answer it deserved. There was no program. No platform. No system.
That's the moment WishFund was born — the idea that no parent should have to send that email without a real answer waiting on the other side. A platform where anyone who cares about a child can create a Wish for a specific activity, and a community comes together to make it real. Every donation funds something specific and meaningful. Just a child on the field, at camp, in a music lesson — exactly where they belong.
Every donation funds a specific activity for a specific child — transparently, securely, and with complete confidence in where your money goes.
A parent, teacher, coach or neighbor creates a Wish for a specific child and activity from our verified provider directory.
Donors discover the Wish and contribute any amount. Funds are held securely until the full goal is reached.
Donations flow directly to the verified activity provider — transparently and securely — so donors always know exactly where their contribution goes.
The child attends. The family shares an update. Donors see exactly what their contribution made possible. Everyone feels the joy.
Donations are held in secure Stripe escrow and released directly to the verified activity provider when the goal is reached — so every dollar lands exactly where it was promised.
All camps, schools, tutors and activity centers are verified before appearing in our directory. You always know exactly which organization receives your donation.
After every activity, the family shares an update. You'll know the child's name, what they experienced, and what it meant to them.
You don't have to be the parent to create a Wish. Anyone who knows and loves a child can make it happen.
Your child was accepted to a camp or program but the fee is out of reach right now. Create a Wish and let your community come together for them.
You see a student or athlete who deserves this opportunity. With the family's support, you can create a Wish on their behalf — a powerful act of advocacy.
You want your giving to be specific, transparent and meaningful. Browse real children with real needs and know exactly what your contribution pays for.
You know a family going through a tough time. With their knowledge and support, a Wish takes 5 minutes to create and could give a child the best summer of their life.
Camps, schools, tutors and sports programs — list your activities and receive fully paid enrollments. Donations are transferred directly to your account, with zero merchant fees on WishFund registrations.
Your CSR budget can fund dozens of children's Wishes. We provide full impact reporting — real stories, real children, real outcomes your team can be proud of.
