“Volunteers are an integral part of the wish-granting process, acting as the liaison between wish families and Make-A-Wish staff,” said Lisa Johnson, Volunteer Resources Coordinator, Make-A-Wish Western New York. “We want to ensure that we have enough volunteers to serve each and every child who qualifies for a wish in the 17-counties we cover. We need their help to turn heartfelt wishes into reality.”
Available volunteer roles include being trained as a wish granter, a speaker at community events, assisting at events or becoming a wish story writer.
“Whether it’s interacting with families directly as a wish granter or helping us spread the word of our heart-warming mission in the community as a speaker or writer, we appreciate the time and skills of all community members who join our volunteer team,” said Kate McGowan, Media Relations and Marketing Manager, Make-A-Wish Western New York. "We often hear that coming on board is a rewarding and life-changing experience for our volunteers."
