Our goal is to foster a culture that truly reflects our Belonging & CommUNITY Vision:
At Make-A-Wish, our vision is to grant the wish of Every Eligible Child. Through our unwavering commitment to Wish Access+Opportunity, we strive to remove barriers and grant life-changing wishes attainable for all. We are dedicated to cultivating a sense of Belonging and strengthening our CommUNITY by bringing together colleagues, wish families, volunteers, and supporters from diverse backgrounds and experiences.
We believe that a culture grounded in respect, inclusion, and collaboration is essential to advancing our mission and supporting one another through every challenge and success.
As a nonprofit whose mission is to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses, we are committed to ensuring every child, family member, volunteer, staff member, intern, and supporter who interacts with us can be their true and authentic self, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, faith, religion, age, or any other aspect which makes them unique. We serve a diverse group of children and families, and we strive to make sure each feels seen, heard, and understood—not only through our own actions but by filling our organization with people from all walks of life. We not only welcome differences, we celebrate them. Every person involved in wish granting has a part to play to promote inclusion. We understand that there will always be work to be done, and we will continue to create an environment of diversity, equity, justice, and inclusion so that we can equitably grant the wish of every eligible child.
