Job description: Organizational Summary

Make-A-Wish Canada creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. They are on a quest to bring every eligible child’s wish to life because a wish is an integral part of a child’s treatment journey. Research shows children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness.

Since 1983, Make-A-Wish Canada has granted over 38,000 wishes across the country, and over 1,400 last year alone. Together with generous donors, supporters, staff and more than 1,000 volunteers across Canada, Make-A-Wish Canada has bold ambitions for growth to bring the therapeutic and transformational benefits of a wish to every family in Canada facing the challenges of childhood critical illness.

• Diversify funding streams to include more profitable donor segments.

In February 2022, was appointed Chief Executive Officer by the Board of Directors and was granted approval from the National Board of Directors for an ambitious three-year strategic plan in September 2022. This long-term vision has three goals- to Raise Money, Grant Wishes, and Be Awesome! This new path forward has galvanized and inspired the team across the country, and significant progress has already been made including:

• 42% YOY growth in wish delivery in 2023;
• 31% growth in fundraising in 2023;
• Successful delivery of a full business transformation including CRM (Salesforce), finance and HRIS systems to support the new truly national, top-tier health charity; and
