Make your wish for the world

Every wish is important and will be cherished. The Rainbow World Fund (RWF) World Tree of Hope ® taps into our two most powerful resources – the human mind and heart – giving individuals a way to join together to express our hopes and intentions for the future of our global community.

Send us your wish! It will be printed, folded into an origami crane, and placed on the RWF World Tree of Hope.

Join us for The World Tree of Hope Celebration!

Rainbow World Fund invites you to come to A Celebration of Hope on Monday, December 4, 2023 at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco. Click here for event details.
