After a pandemic-pause, Make-A-Wish America will resume granting wishes that include air travel and “large gatherings” starting in September 2021 — but only if the sick “Wish kid” and others participating in the wish are two weeks out from vaccination.

“I’m excited to share that Make-A-Wish will resume granting air travel wishes within the United States and its territories, as well as granting wishes involving large gatherings, for vaccinated Wish families as soon as September 15, 2021,” announced Make-A-Wish President and CEO Richard Davis in a recent video. “All Wish participants, including your Wish kid and any siblings, will need to be two-weeks past completion of either a one-dose or a two-dose vaccine.”
