NEW YORK, Nov. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Snappy, the leading gifting company known for spreading joy and simplifying the gifting process, proudly announced a donation milestone of $2 million to Make-A-Wish^®.

This very significant achievement was made possible by the kindness and generosity of Snappy gift recipients who opted to donate the value of their gift to help support the transformative wishes of children with critical illnesses. The synergy between Snappy's ethos of spreading joy through meaningful gifting and Make-A-Wish's mission of granting life-changing wishes has created a powerful partnership that is moving into its third year.

"At Snappy, we are so grateful to witness the profound impact of individual generosity," said Hani Goldstein, Co-Founder and CEO, Snappy. "When members of our community choose to donate their gift's value to Make-A-Wish, they create a cascade of positivity. The philanthropic potential of our platform has made us deeply thankful for the kindness of our gift recipients and the wishes they've made possible for these children and their families."

"A wish creates an immediate turning point in a child's treatment and recovery, and partnerships like Snappy's make more of these life-changing wishes possible," said Leslie Motter, president and CEO of Make-A-Wish America. "There's a gap between the number of wishes we're granting and the number of wishes waiting, and we're thrilled for Snappy's support to help us close that gap."
