Disney and Make-A-Wish are celebrating 150,000 Disney wishes
Disney and Make-A-Wish have collaborated to make dreams come true for kids suffering from critical illnesses for the past 40 years. Together, the two organizations have granted 150,000 Disney-inspired wishes. To ensure Disney-inspired wishes continue into the future, Disney and Make-A-Wish have collaborated on a new specialty license plate.

The 150,000th Disney-inspired wish was granted to 16-year-old Mikayla from Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, who began her battle fighting cancer three years ago. Mikayla and her family’s wish was made extra special via an overnight stay in the Cinderella Castle Suite, which is not a typical occurrence even for Make-A-Wish families.
The Disney Make-A-Wish License Plates are not just an artistic tribute; they also serve as a catalyst for transforming lives. The proceeds from the sale of these specialty plates directly benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation, enabling them to fulfill the wishes of countless children facing critical illnesses.
The new plate design, which features Cinderella Castle and will replace the current 50th-anniversary plate, debuted on the back of the coach that Mikayla rode in as the Grand Marshall of the Festival of Fantasy Parade at Magic Kingdom Park.
Whether it’s a trip to a Disney theme park, meeting their favorite princess, or becoming a superhero for a day, these wishes create unforgettable memories that provide hope, strength, and resilience to these courageous children and their families. The license plates, dubbed “the most magical license plate on earth,” have generated more than $1.5 million in proceeds so far for Make-A-Wish Central and Northern Florida.
No word yet on when the plates will be available for Florida drivers.
