Our Partnership

Since partnering with Make-A-Wish® Australia in 2017, Hungry Jack’s has been working tirelessly to make vital wishes come true for critically ill children and teenagers. The Hungry Jack’s campaign has raised over $10 Million from 2021 - 2025. Last year, our 2025 campaign, raised $2.7 Million, the highest amount ever fundraised in Make-A-Wish Australia history.

THE POWER OF A WISH

Wishes are designed to complement medical treatment, supporting families and empowering sick children with hope and joy when they need it most. For everyone involved, wishes have a remarkable, uplifting and positive impact – well beyond the wish itself. A wish has been shown to strengthen a child’s ability to fight their condition, igniting positivity and energy to help the child battle for their health. We can never underestimate the importance of having something to look forward to.

Make-A-Wish® Round-Up FAQs

What is the Round-Up initiative?

Launched in 2025 as part of the annual Hungry Jack's Fundraiser for Make-A-Wish®, the Round-Up initiative reflects Hungry Jack’s commitment to supporting Make-A-Wish® Australia in bringing joy and hope to seriously ill children and their families.

When ordering at Hungry Jack’s restaurants, customers have the option to round up their purchase to the nearest dollar and donate the difference. These small contributions help fund life-changing wishes for critically ill children across Australia.

How does the Round-Up initiative work?

When customers pay for their Hungry Jack’s order in-store, in the drive thru, via self-order kiosk or the mobile app, a “Yes” or “No” prompt will appear asking if they would like to round up their total.

If “Yes” is selected, the total is rounded up to the nearest dollar, with the additional amount donated to Make-A-Wish. If “No” is selected, the order total remains unchanged.

For example, if a meal totals $10.30, customers can choose to round-up to $11.00, with the extra 70 cents going directly to Make-A-Wish.

Is the Round-Up initiative optional?

Yes. Contributions to Make-A-Wish are completely optional. When paying for orders, customers are asked if they would like to contribute and can choose “Yes” or “No” before completing their payment.

How can I donate to Make-A-Wish in-restaurant?

Hungry Jack’s customers can round-up to donate to Make-A-Wish when they pay for their order at the register, drive thru window, self-order kiosk and mobile app. Outside the restaurant, donations to Make-A-Wish can be given by visiting Ways to Donate.

Do extra cents really make a difference?

Yes. Thousands of customers saying “yes” to round-up every day creates meaningful, sustained support for wish families, bringing hope and joy to wish kids living with critical illnesses. Collectively, spare change makes a large difference.
