Our dedicated staff and volunteers are committed to supporting each wish family to determine all the wish possibilities we can safely grant now for families who choose not to wait for a wish.

Every wish is made possible through the generous support of our community. To learn more about how you can donate, volunteer, and share the Make-A-Wish mission, visit: wish.org/oki
