$600,0002024 marks the 10-year anniversary of Hotondo Homes’ official partnership with Make-A-Wish Australia. Over the past decade, we’ve had the privilege of playing a meaningful role in granting life-changing wishes for critically ill children and their families across Australia, bringing smiles, hope, and moments of joy when they are needed most.
From creative cubby houses to beautifully crafted wishing wells used at fundraising events, and even custom-built kennels for wish kids’ new puppy companions, our network has added an extra sparkle to unique wishes over the years. With each project, our franchisees have brought passion and care to create something truly special, adding an extra touch of magic to every wish we’ve supported.
partnership with Make-A-Wish Australia has also been marked by our shared commitment to making a real difference. Over the past 10 years, we’ve contributed over $600,000, helping to grant an incredible amount of wishes that not only bring joy to sick kids but also provide cherished memories for their families.
This achievement wouldn’t have been possible without the generosity of our franchisees, staff, and community members who have supported and participated in fundraising events, donations, and hands-on involvement. Whether building, donating, or cheering on our efforts, every contribution has been essential to the success of our partnership with Make-A-Wish Australia. Together, we’ve helped make dreams come true for children across Australia, and we look forward to continuing this incredible partnership for years to come.
We are thrilled to announce that the Make-A-Wish Overall Achievement Award 2024 has been awarded to Hotondo Homes Goulburn at our annual 2024 Conference!
This award recognises the Goulburn team’s outstanding contribution to supporting the incredible work of Make-A-Wish Australia, helping grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. Their dedication to giving back and making a difference in the community is truly inspiring.
A huge congratulations to Hotondo Homes Goulburn for this well deserved recognition!
We’re incredibly proud to support Make-A-Wish® Australia through a variety of fundraising activities such as golf days, morning teas and other events held across our network. Every dollar we raise goes towards helping grant wishes for children facing critical illnesses, giving them the chance to experience something truly extraordinary.
One of those children is 11-year-old Olive, who was diagnosed with a condition called airway stenosis, which narrows the airways. Olive’s wish was to go snowboarding and sled dog riding with her family. Thanks to Make-A-Wish, Olive’s wish came true. She and her family learnt how to shred the slopes during snowboarding lessons and topped off the adventure with an enchanting sled dog ride through the backcountry trails!
To date, we’ve proudly raised more than $600,000 to help grant even more life-changing wishes for seriously ill children, giving them hope and joy when they need it most.
When the topic of snow dogs came up during her Wish Capture, Olive’s face lit up like a Christmas tree!
