Have you shared your Wishbone Day photos?

This year we've make it SUPER easy for you to share your Wishbone Day photos. Check out these 3 easy options.

1. Already sharing through Facebook?


Follow Wishbone Day on Facebook so you can tag Wishbone Day in the photos you want to share with us.  The photos you tag in the Wishbone Day facebook album will be eligible for selection in the WBD2012 video!

NOTE:  People will be able to view a tagged Wishbone Day photo on our Page if they are already able to see it based on its privacy setting. Tagging Wishbone Day in a photo doesn’t change the privacy setting for that photo so be sure to update the privacy settings to public view for your photo or album. If you can't see your photo on our page, we won't see it either. Check your privacy settings. Only those photos viewable in public settings will be used in the WBD2012 video.

By tagging Wishbone Day on our public Facebook site you'll be granting permission for Wishbone Day to select those photos for use in the Wishbone Day 2012 video.

2. Upload your photos to your own photo hosting site


You can upload your photos to your own hosting site ie. PhotobucketPicsawebFlikr or DropBox and give Wishbone Day viewing and download permissions to your Wishbone Day folder. Permissions can be sent to photos@wishboneday.com.

By giving Wishbone Day permission to view and download your image/s you'll be granting Wishbone Day permission to select those photos for use in the Wishbone Day 2012 video.

3. E-Mail your photo selection


Prefer just to email.? That's fine.  Email your photos direct to our Visual Media Team at photos@wishboneday.com

Guess who arrived home today?



That's right!  WISHY
Wishy arrived home today from his big around the world trip!
Look how far he travelled!  You can read about Wishy's Big Adventure here.


He left Sydney on Wishbone Day 6th May 2011.  His plan was to travel and see as many new friends as possible and to be back in Sydney to celebrate Wishbone Day Sydney 2012.  Way to go Wishy!!  

He made it home just in time!!!!  

While he was away he met so many fantastic friends, attended conferences, met professional, kids, parents and staff.  He visited clinics, homes, hospitals and special events.  

He arrived home safe but very very tired!

Wishy wants to thank all his generous hosts for helping him travel between places, giving him somewhere safe to sleep and keeping him busy during those awesome trips.  

He cant wait to begin the next part of the travel plan because there are still so many places and people he wants to meet.

Wishy will leave Sydney again soon to attend the OIF Conference in Washington DC, so if you're there keep an eye out for him! After the conference he will head straight to the Philippines. 

If you'd like to host Wishy where you live or have an event you'd like him to attend, please drop us a note so we can add it to his itinerary!
