pediped^® and the Make-A-Wish Foundation^®

What is your wish? It has always been pediped’s wish to care for children beyond their feet, and we are doing that through our national sponsorship of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants the wishes of children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich the human experience with hope, strength and joy.

Since 2008, pediped has donated more than $200,000 to the Make-A-Wish Foundation. We invite you to join us in helping grant wishes to courageous children by participating in our yearly Make-A-Wish® fundraising events.
