Make-A-WishMake-A-Wish grants the wish of a child diagnosed with a life-threatening medical condition in the United States and its territories, on average, every 38 minutes. We believe that a wish experience can be a game-changer. This one belief guides us. It inspires us to grant wishes that change the lives of the kids we serve.
Wishes make life better for kids with life-threatening medical conditions. This simple, but powerful belief drives Make-A-Wish. Wishes are only made possible through the hard work of many dedicated staff, volunteers, donors and other supporters.

VolunteeringAlthough the need for volunteers will vary by chapter, opportunities can be found in every community – in every state and every territory of the United States.
Opportunities to volunteer may include being a wish granter, office worker, translator, fundraiser, speaker or event staff member. Wish-granting volunteers work in teams of 2-3 to grant the wishes that change lives. Make-A-Wish® trains these volunteers to help children identify their most heartfelt wish – and to bring the experience to life in a way that exceeds every expectation.
To provide the best experience possible, we require all potential volunteers to undergo an assessment. Our work involves children and sensitive information, so select volunteer positions require a criminal background check and evaluation every three years.
