Wish Discovery Volunteers
Wish Discovery volunteers guide wish children and their families at the start of the Wish Journey, helping them build resilience and experience healing. Through virtual conversations, they create meaningful connections to empower each child to explore possibilities and identify a wish inspired by their unique interests and passions. Wish Discovery volunteers collaborate closely with Make‑A‑Wish staff to ensure every child’s Wish Journey begins with clarity, excitement, and support.
