Host a Community or Corporate Event

Become a volunteer event organizer by hosting a fundraising event to benefit the Make-A-Wish Foundation of North Dakota.  Our Community & Corporate Events raise awareness of our mission and bring the community together to support children's wishes.

Events range from posh to whimsical - let your event-planning creativity shine.  Examples of commonly held Community & Corporate Events include golf tournaments; office dress-down days; comedy nights; dinner dances; black-tie galas, fashion shows; musical performances/concerts; softball tournaments; and bike rides.

Our staff will help you get started.  If you are interested in organizing an event, please contact Molly Hofker at 701-280-9474 or mhofker@northdakota.wish.org.
