The vision of Make-A-Wish Nebraska is to grant the wish of every eligible child, but we can’t do it without your help! We encourage you to learn more about how to Wish It Forward!

Make-A-Wish volunteers are the reason we are able to grant the wishes of children living with critical illnesses. From wish granting, events and galas, hotel-room decorating, to gift wrap – volunteers are always at the center of what we do. We are so grateful for those who want to give the gift of time. To find out how you can become a Make-A-Wish Nebraska volunteer and to get started, please visit our volunteer page. 

Sharing your Make-A-Wish story is so powerful! Become a Wish Alumni Ambassador and help raise awareness and support of our mission throughout your community. Contact Courtney Cleveringa, Community & Medical Outreach Manager, for more information. 

With the number of wishes we need granted continually increasing, so is the need for vital funding. Please help raise funds to make wishes a reality for children in Nebraska.

Every wish experience begins with a referral 

We rely on wish referrals to help us reach all eligible children living with critical illnesses. Your referral can provide a wish that will change a life forever. The eligibility consideration process is initiated when a wish referral is submitted to the local chapter. Learn more about who is eligible for a wish, who can refer a child and how the referral process works - Refer a Child Page.
