Disney’s “The Wish Effect” Spotlights Tali, a 12-Year-Old Make-A-Wish Recipient Who Loves the Outdoors

As part of Make-A-Wish and The Walt Disney Company’s efforts to help grant as many wishes as possible for children dealing with serious long-term illnesses, Tali, a 12-year-old lover of the outdoors, had her wish granted of a Disney-themed camper to take road trips with her family in the latest episode of Disney’s The Wish Effect:

  • She was so inspired after her trips, that Tali and her family started creating care packages for children being treated for similar diseases.
  • She even got her home-state of New Mexico to create a childhood cancer awareness license plate.
  • Disney’s The Wish Effect is a YouTube series revisiting the impact the Make-A-Wish program had on wish kids and their communities through the years.
  • Since the first wish was granted at the Disneyland Resort 40 years ago, The Walt Disney Company and Make-A-Wish have worked together to make more than 140,000 wishes come true.
  • You can learn more about The Wish Effect from our launch announcement.
