Since 2003, NCAA Division II has partnered with Make-A-Wish America as a national sponsor to help raise millions of dollars and grant hundreds of wishes for children battling critical illnesses. These wishes are a game-changer for these kids and their biggest fans, the families who love them. Make-A-Wish is on a quest to bring every eligible child's wish to life. Research shows that children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight harder against- and sometimes even overcome- an illness.
