Mission

Angelwish.org was created in 1999 with the mission to provide the public with an easy way to grant wishes to the millions of children that are living with HIV/AIDS around the world. Infected or affected by the disease, their opportunities for a "normal" childhood are virtually impossible. In 2010, after 10 years of focusing on HIV/AIDS, Angelwish expanded its mission to include children living with chronic illnesses such as Asthma, Diabetes and Kidney Disease. Angelwish achieves its mission by ensuring that 100% of individual donations are used for program services and that those funds are extended, where possible, to incorporate an educational component giving young people a hands on lesson in philanthropy

Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Over 14.6 Million children between the ages of 0 to 17 in the United States have special health care needs, the majority being chronic illnesses. These children are greatly underserved at most major hospitals, with dire consequences. Overseas, chronic illnesses are responsible for 63% of deaths worldwide, double the number of deaths from infectious diseases, perinatal conditions, and nutritional deficiencies combined.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

What is the organization aiming to accomplish?

Angelwish seeks to help millions of children living with chronic illnesses around the world enjoy their childhood while building the healthy foundation necessary to get a better education and a chance to escape the poverty cycle.

What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?

Angelwish engages donors to give back to children in need in a personal way that is also efficient, environmentally friendly, and cost efficient. By leveraging technology to initially engage donors, we guide them to invest with impact. We can accomplish this through the following programs:
-The Angelwish Wish Granting Program makes it possible for anyone, anywhere to dramatically impact the life of a child living with a chronic illness through our online wish list.
- The Angelwish Students Give Back Program offers volunteers the opportunity to teach Philanthropy to 3rd graders through a customized curriculum and a hands on learning opportunity.
- The Angelwish Holiday Toy Drive manages one of the largest physical toy distributions in the NYC Metro area.
- The Angelwish Transition Project is an effort to revive, revamp, and share a critical guide to transitioning children with HIV to adulthood.
- The Angelwish International Giving Program is how we let donors donate small amounts of funds to international partners.

What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?

Angelwish leverages technology to improve and update old and manual processes. We avoid recreating the wheel and instead, align different partners to do what they do best, ultimately benefiting children in need while creating a win-win opportunity for everyone involved. Our network of 125+ hospitals around the world gives us insight into the issues facing children living with chronic illnesses. Our visualization of a value

What have they accomplished so far and what's next?

Over the course of 18 years, Angelwish has empowered 20,000+ employees at companies like Goldman Sachs, PIMCO, Credit Suisse, Fidelity Investments, Deloitte, UBS, & Starbucks, to host more efficient toy drives, recouping 60,000 hours of people time (conservatively worth $$28M) as they granted 200,000 wishes with a value of $3.6 Million, impacting the lives of over 500,000 people. We are far from finished and excited for the journey that lays ahead.

How we listen

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Seeking feedback from people served makes programs more responsive and effective. Here’s how this organization is listening.

We shared information about our current feedback practices.

How is your organization using feedback from the people you serve?

To identify and remedy poor client service experiences, To identify bright spots and enhance positive service experiences, To make fundamental changes to our programs and/or operations, To inform the development of new programs/projects, To strengthen relationships with the people we serve, To understand people's needs and how we can help them achieve their goals
Which of the following feedback practices does your organization routinely carry out?

We collect feedback from the people we serve at least annually, We take steps to get feedback from marginalized or under-represented people, We aim to collect feedback from as many people we serve as possible, We look for patterns in feedback based on demographics (e.g., race, age, gender, etc.), We look for patterns in feedback based on people’s interactions with us (e.g., site, frequency of service, etc.), We engage the people who provide feedback in looking for ways we can improve in response, We act on the feedback we receive
What challenges does the organization face when collecting feedback?

It is difficult to get the people we serve to respond to requests for feedback, We don’t have the right technology to collect and aggregate feedback efficiently, The people we serve tell us they find data collection burdensome, It is difficult to find the ongoing funding to support feedback collection, Staff find it hard to prioritize feedback collection and review due to lack of time

Balance sheet

Fiscal Year: Jan 01 - Dec 31

SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info

The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
