Who We Are

We are a the local extension of the nationa-wide Make-A-Wish Foundation, granting the wishes of children in the Susquehanna Valley region.  We are looking for volunteers ranging from high impact (wish granters who meet with wish families, organizers and creative dreamers to come up with events and fundraisers), to lesser commitment volunteering, such as helping out at events, helping with mailings, etc. Let us know today how available you are, what you're interseted in, and we can find a space for you to make a difference in the life of a child!
