Donation Boxes and Star Sales: Place a donation box near each register or in the front office with information about the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Encourage your staff to inform customers about how your company supports this great cause.

Cause Marketing: Donate a percentage of sales or specific dollar amount to the Foundation for a day, week, month or holiday. For restaurant participation see our Dine and Donate Packet.

OTHER WAYS TO GIVE

 

Grants: Does your company participate in grant programs? We'd love to apply to your grant today!

In-Kind Donations: Many times we need specific items or skills to fulfill a wish. This could include anything from construction help, to computer or electronic help, to the donation of wish-specific items such as a laptop. Maybe you can help us find a special item or help us make it! You can also donate items, gift cards or services to be used in an auction or raffle at an upcoming event!

Volunteering: Volunteers are the backbone of the Make-A-Wish Foundation. Our volunteers help us in a variety of different ways including, but not limited to: representing the Foundation at community events, speaking to businesses, assisting with office work, wish granting and much, much more!

Backpack, Toy and Gift Card Drive: Our wish kids receive toys as enhancements during many phases of the wish process. Whether it's a gift to break the ice the first time we meet them, or a toy to fill a backpack for them to take on a travel wish, these gifts make each child feel extra special. With your help, we can fill our toy closet to the brim with a variety of great gifts! You can get your customers involved with this campaign as well!

Electronic Waste: Host your own E-Waste drive or schedule a corporate pickup to donate old electronics and materials.

 If you'd like to participate in any of these campaigns, contact us at getinvolved@wishocie.org so we can help get you started! Don't see something here? Let us know what you have in mind and we can work together to make it happen. We look forward to working with you soon!
