Volunteering at Make-A-Wish

You can help make the wishes of children in our community come true when you become a Make-A-Wish® volunteer. Our mission is possible only with the dedication of our volunteers.

Be a real life superhero! Volunteers are essential to our commitment to bring hope, strength and joy into the lives of children battling life-threatening illnesses. Throughout our territory, volunteers are the faces of Make-A-Wish®  to children, families and donors.
