Make wishes happen by volunteering with our 7K run or 1.5 mile walk! Bring JOY to young adults, and their families, fighting cancer. Nik discovered that young adults over 17 are not eligible for a "wish." In fact, most pediatric support programs age out at 18 and adult programs start at 25, leaving a gap for young adults. Nik asked us to help young adults fighting cancer have a wish too!

The mission of Nik's Wish, The Nikolas Ritschel Foundation is to BRING HOPE & JOY to young adults (18-24), and their loved ones, fighting cancer. We do this by granting and then fulfilling wishes for these young adult cancer patients who have aged out of other wish type programs.
The Nikolas Ritschel Foundation, known as Nik's Wish, brings joy to young adults fighting cancer. We grant wishes to those over 17 who don't qualify elsewhere. We've granted 300+ wishes in 40 states, making a widespread impact. Volunteers engage in admin, outreach, fundraising, and working closely with young adults and families. We focus on 18-24-year-olds whose lives are disrupted by cancer. We create "Moments of Joy" through wishes celebrating milestones, providing breaks, and fulfilling last desires. Join us to make a tangible difference in the lives of these young adults. Thank you for considering Nik's Wish.
