Stella’s Wish Foundation is a non-profit foundation which is funded through corporate sponsorships, individual donors, and fundraisers. Thanks to our growing list of supporters and donors, we are granting wishes of adults with life-threatening cancers across the United States.

We’re looking for 100 people to donate $10/month to help us continue granting wishes.

Upon receiving her own wish, Stella’s heart was filled with a new wish: for there to be a foundation which granted wishes for adults with life-threatening Stage 4 cancers. In February 2008, Stella’s husband established Stella’s Wish Foundation in honor of “His Stella”.

Stella’s Wish Foundation would be honored to grant a wish for you or someone you know who has been diagnosed with Stage 4 of a life-threatening cancer. Cancer takes the life of 555,000 people (about 1 in every 489) every year in the USA.

Stella’s Wish Foundation is a 501(c) (3) status Non Profit as of March 2, 2009

We want to grant a wish for you!
