Marriott Vacations Worldwide becomes national Make-A-Wish sponsor to give wish families special vacation experiences

ORLANDO, Fla – Feb. 24, 2022 – Marriott Vacations Worldwide (NYSE: VAC) is partnering with Make-A-Wish as the newest national sponsor to help grant life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. As part of this new sponsorship, wish kids and families will be able to enjoy unique and beautiful villa accommodations and memorable vacation experiences at select Vacation Club properties.

“At Marriott Vacations Worldwide, we’re in the business of vacations, and each day we see firsthand how meaningful those experiences can be,” said Stephen P. Weisz, CEO, Marriott Vacations Worldwide. “While many people make a vacation a part of their life, there are others who can’t do so as easily, which is why we are excited to become a Make-A-Wish sponsor and help families and children with critical illnesses enjoy a vacation stay experience with us.”

Make-A-Wish is on a quest to bring every eligible child’s wish to life, and research shows children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness.

“We are thrilled to welcome Marriott Vacations Worldwide as the newest national partner of Make-A-Wish,” said Richard K. Davis, president and CEO of Make-A-Wish America. “Their support will help us continue our mission to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses – many of whom view the wish as a pivotal moment in their healing journey and a much-needed source of hope and joy for their entire family.”

This new partnership with Make-A-Wish complements Marriott Vacations Worldwide’s longstanding commitment to helping individuals facing significant health challenges. To read more about our work, visit our website.
