We have long known that Disney has had close ties with the Make-A-Wish foundation. Disney has been working alongside the initiative for 42 years, and collaboratively help make over 145,000 wishes come true. The very first Wish ever granted actually took place at the Disneyland Resort, and Disney has no plans of slowing down on making wishes come true. In fact, they are continuously getting more extravagant and special for the wishers.
