Volunteer Opportunities
Wish Granters
Organization: Make-A-Wish Missouri & Kansas
Flexible Schedule| Saint Louis, 63021
Wish Granters meet with the wish child and family (in person or virtually), help the wish child determine their one true wish and act as a liaison between Make-A-Wish staff and the family during the wish journey. Wish granter volunteers get to know the wish child and their family and help to make the wish journey extra special with little surprises a long the way. Wish granters need to be at least 18 years old and pass a background check.
