Help make a final wish possible
Every wish is a powerful moment — a chance to reconnect, to say goodbye, or to experience something meaningful one last time. At Ambulance Wish Western Australia, we believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to create a final memory filled with dignity, comfort, and compassion.
Our Gift a Wish programme invites individuals, families, workplaces, and community groups to directly fund a final wish for a terminally ill West Australian.
A single gift can make an extraordinary difference.
What is a Gift a Wish?
A Gift a Wish is a dedicated donation of $2,000, representing the average cost of planning and delivering one final wish journey.
Each wish involves careful coordination, specialised medical transport, trained volunteer clinicians, and personalised support to ensure the journey is safe, meaningful, and memorable for the patient and their loved ones. Our service is provided completely free of charge to families, and the number of wishes we can fulfil depends entirely on the generosity of donors.
By gifting a wish, you are directly enabling someone to:
- Visit a place of personal significance;
- Spend precious time with family and friends;
- Return home one last time;
- Celebrate a milestone or special occasion; and
- Experience comfort, connection, and closure.
It is more than a donation — it is a final memory.
The Impact of Your Gift
$2,000 can fund one complete wish journey, including:
- Specialised medical transport in a our Wish Ambulances;
- Clinical care throughout the journey;
- Fuel, equipment, and operational costs;
- Careful planning and coordination with families and healthcare teams; and
- Comfort and support for the wish recipient and their loved ones
Every dollar goes directly toward fulfilling final wishes, with our organisation proudly operating as a 100% volunteer-run charity.
