Explore some of the ways you can transform lives for wish kids in your community!
Wish Discovery Volunteer
A wish discovery volunteer meets the wish child and family to the wish kid discover their one true wish. Each wish is a uniquely personal decision and represents hope, strength, and joy during an otherwise difficult moment in time for a child facing a critical illness.
Time Commitment: 1 hour monthly and/or as many discovery visits you choose
Wish Boost Volunteer
The entire wish journey can take between 7 to 12-months, so our volunteers and staff find creative and thoughtful ways, or Wish Boosts, to keep the excitement growing along the way. Wish Boost volunteers work in teams of two to design and send personalized wish boosts at specified times throughout their wish journey. Volunteers celebrate healthcare milestones, successful treatments, and provide moments of hope for wish kids during a medical journey often filled with obstacles and uncertainty.
Time commitment: 1-4 hours monthly depending on the wish
Volunteer Mentor
The Mentorship positions will assist in supporting Wish Granting and Airport Greeter volunteers who are seeking to be partnered with an experienced volunteer. These positions will work closely with new Wish Granting and Airport Greeter volunteers to support the discovery and boost processes as well as airport send-offs and welcomes, which includes training, providing resources, and offering guidance. The goal is to ensure a positive and meaningful experience for our wish kids, families, and new volunteers.
Time commitment: 1-2 hours monthly
Airport Greeter
Experience the essence of helping wishes take flight! A volunteer airport greeter meets wish families at designated airports upon their arrival or departure for their wish experience. Your presence adds an extra touch of love and encouragement as you witness the joy and excitement as wish children embark on their wish adventure.
Time commitment: 2-3 hours per airport sendoff
