About Us

We are helping build healthier families and
transforming family break-ups – for the sake of our kids.

Our History

The Two Wishes Foundation arose from the voices of young people who experienced difficult, harmful or traumatic family break-ups.

Our Vision

Our vision is of a world where all children have positive relationships with all who love and care for them, whatever changes may happen to their family.

Our Impact

Our growing, non-profit foundation is raising public awareness, protecting children and changing how we view the entire issue of family separation.
