Our Chapter

At Make-A-Wish, 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. 

We are always on the lookout for great talent who share in our passion. If you are interested in a career or internship with Make-A-Wish, check out our current open positions.

The mission of Make-A-Wish Oklahoma is to create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. We are committed to ensuring every child, family member, volunteer, staff member, intern, and supporter that interacts with us can be their true and authentic self, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, physical and mental ability, faith, religion, age, or any other aspect which makes them unique. We serve a diverse group of children and families, and we strive to make sure each feels seen, heard, and understood—not only through our own actions but by filling our organization with people from all walks of life. We not only welcome differences, we celebrate them. Every person involved in wish granting has a part to play to promote inclusion. We understand that there will always be work to be done, and we will continue to create an environment of diversity, equity, justice, and inclusion so that we can equitably grant the wish of every eligible child.
