How you help Volunteers play a pivotal role in Wish Granting and we could not do it without them. From special event participation to Wish Granting, our volunteers are an important part of every child's Wish Journey.
About us In the U.S. and its territories, a wish is granted every 34 minutes. A wish can be that spark that helps these children believe that anything is possible and gives them the strength to fight harder against their illnesses. This one belief guides us and inspires us to grant wishes that change the lives of the kids we serve.
