Make a Wish Extreme Team Presentation
Make-A-Wish is dedicated to creating life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Every wish experience can be a game-changer: a source of hope, confidence, and joy at a time when these children need it most.
The EXTREME Team is a bold initiative designed to push the boundaries of fundraising, awareness, and immersive wish experiences. By aligning high-adrenaline sports and activities with Make-A-Wish’s values, we can tap into a new level of enthusiasm and support.
Bring Exposure and Raise Funds: Leverage the excitement around motorsports, skydiving, air shows, and other extreme activities to capture the public’s attention and direct it towards Make-A-Wish.
Involve Kids in Once-in-a-Lifetime Experiences: Provide unique moments where these children can sit in the cockpit of an air show plane, watch a stunt performance up close, or even ride along in a race car if possible—all while highlighting their journey and celebrating their strength.
By creating unforgettable experiences, we elevate Make-A-Wish’s mission: not just granting wishes, but inspiring communities to take part in something bigger.
Key Objectives
Formula Race Team
The Make-a-Wish Extreme Team can offer children the unforgettable excitement of professional motorsports, transforming their love of speed and racing into an inspiring, hands-on experience. By opening the gates to this adrenaline-filled world, we create a wish-fulfillment opportunity that sparks hope and joy—letting them feel the thunder of the track, meet the drivers, and even step into the cockpit themselves.
THE GOAL
Transforming lives, one wish at a time
The Extreme Skydiving Team gives kids a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to soar through the sky alongside an insanely talented group of professionals. By introducing them to the electrifying world of freefall, we create a wish experience that is both empowering and awe-inspiring—allowing them to conquer their fears, embrace the wind in their face, and discover a sense of freedom that truly knows no bounds.

Aviation Team / Resources
The Aviation Team brings children into the exhilarating world of flight through three main channels. First, our exclusive military access provides behind-the-scenes interactions with fighter jets, transport planes, and the dedicated crews who operate them. Next, our presence at large-scale air shows showcases high-octane aerial stunts to captivate massive audiences and amplify awareness. Finally, with our own aircraft, we offer hands-on experiences—like cockpit tours or scenic flights—that let every child truly feel the magic of soaring above the clouds.
