Job Shadow (virtual) - Fundraising & Event Management in San Diego, CA
The UA Job Shadow Program will be held virtually through ONE HOUR informational interviews over Zoom.
Make-a-Wish San Diego grants life-affirming wishes to children with critical illnesses. When a wish is granted, a child replaces fear with confidence, sadness with joy and anxiety with hope. This can have a real and tangible impact on a child’s health. In fact, research shows that wishes have proven physical and emotional benefits that can give children with critical illnesses a higher chance of survival. Doctors and social workers use wishes as part of their treatment plan because wishes are that important.
The host for this opportunity is Dana Vandersip, Vice President of Development!
