Our Chapter

At Make-A-Wish Mississippi, we are more than a great place to work — our work is life-changing. We are an inclusive and diverse group of people who, through a mosaic of backgrounds, thought and experiences, are united in purposeful work. We are fueled and guided by our values — values that are represented in the inspired people we work with and the life-changing work we do, every day.

Make-A-Wish Mississippi finances endeavors through corporate sponsorships, special events, foundation grants and individual contributions. However, we do not solicit funds by telephone and receive no federal or state funding. As a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization, all contributions are deductible to the extent permitted by law. Our financial statements are audited locally by CliftonLarsonAllen, LLP.

At Make-A-Wish, we take our responsibility for the monies donated to our cause very seriously and always strive to ensure that 70-75% of every dollar donated is spent on wish granting and related program expenses. We are pleased to confirm that according to the fiscal year 2022 audit results, Make-A-Wish Mississippi spent 72% of every dollar on wish granting and program expenses with only 17% going to Fundraising and 11% going to Management and General costs. For full financial details, please review our most recent FY22 Audited Financial Statements and FY22 990.
