(WPDE) — Make-A-Wish has announced the debut of The Holiday Wish Line, a telephone hotline with messages recorded by Wish Kids.

The Holiday Wish Line allows anyone, at any time, to receive a dose of hope and joy from our wish kids.”
Six Wish Kids, who have all battled a critical illness, will provide kid-friendly advice, stories and funny moments.
