Every pound you help raise goes directly towards granting wishes for children facing critical illnesses, creating hope, joy, and unforgettable memories for families who need it most.
What Makes This Role Different?
This is a flexible, ad hoc, volunteer-led role that fits around your lifestyle and commitments. There are no set fundraising targets or fixed weekly hours. You decide how you'd like to support Make-A-Wish and how much time you can give.
Fundraising is at the heart of this role and is driven by your own ideas, local connections, and enthusiasm. Whether it's organising a community event, engaging local businesses, securing donations, or encouraging others to get involved, you'll help generate the funds needed to grant wishes. We'll provide guidance, resources, and support along the way.
How You'll Get Started
Getting started as a Community Wish Maker is simple. Within your first few months, you'll choose a fundraising activity from our Community Fundraising Toolkit or create your own fundraising idea.
You can:
- Organise an activity independently
- Fundraise with friends, family or colleagues
- Team up with other local Community Wish Makers
- Support an existing Make-A-Wish fundraising campaign or event
- Whether it's a bake sale, quiz night, sponsored challenge, workplace fundraiser, school activity or local business partnership, you'll be helping raise the funds needed to grant more wishes
We'll provide resources, guidance and support to help you succeed.
What We're Looking For
You don't need fundraising experience—just enthusiasm, initiative, and a desire to make a difference
We're looking for people who are:
- Confident building relationships and engaging others
- Self-motivated and proactive
- Creative in finding fundraising opportunities
- Organised and reliable
- Positive, enthusiastic, and passionate about helping others
What we will do for you:
- You will receive a 12 week induction training
- Community Fundraising Volunteer Toolkit to help you get started
- A one-to-one introductory phone call with a member of our team
- Materials to get you started in your role
- A dedicated Volunteer manager
- Access to connections & networks in your region

- Regular volunteer newsletters with updates, opportunities, and useful information
