Make-A-Wish Minnesota has cut ties with a vehicle-donation charity that is being investigated by Minnesota's attorney general.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation wants to help make more wishes come true for kids in the St. Cloud area. Make-A-Wish Minnesota has been granting wishes for over 30 years to kids throughout the state.
