Become a Member of Our Board
A good, effective Board of Directors is made up of people from all walks of life who can contribute their own particular skills to meet the ever changing needs of a non-profit organization. Perhaps you have experience in sales, marketing, or you’re the parent of a wish child and understand what wish families need. If you believe your skills and knowledge could make our Society even stronger, please contact the Executive Director, Craig Hawkins, to get your application underway.
