Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois Career Opportunities

Remember what it was like to be young and to dream? Anything seemed possible.

The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois grants wishes to children with life-threatening medical conditions to enrich their lives with hope, strength and joy. Since 1985, the Foundation has granted more than 9,000 wishes in Illinois.

At the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois, that sense of hope never fades. Since 1985, the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Illinois has worked with parents, volunteers and community members to bring hope, strength and joy to thousands of children with life-threatening medical conditions.

Our goal is to fulfill a wish for every child who qualifies for our program. Giving wish children the power to decide the nature of a wish provides both the recipients and their families with renewed faith, courage and self-confidence. These are not "last wishes" but messages that tell of the hope, joy and magic inherent in every life.

The joyous Make-A-Wish experience takes wish kids and their families on a magical journey away from doctor visits and medical tests.
