We 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 build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness.

Headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona, Make-A-Wish is the world’s leading children’s wish-granting organization, serving children in every community in the United States and in 50 countries worldwide. Together, generous donors, supporters, staff and 33,000 volunteers across the U.S., grant a wish every 34 minutes, on average, somewhere in the country. Since 1980, Make-A-Wish has granted more than 285,000 wishes to children in the U.S. and its territories; more than 15,300 in 2016 alone.

Jessica Kuhn was born in San Diego, California to a family of technologists, gamers, and artists. After receiving her degree in English/Writing at the University of California – San Diego, her innate desire to demystify complexity, to understand and be understood, and to unite “the why” with “the how” led her into a career as a business analyst, project manager and operational strategist.

Over the last 18 years, Jessica has supported the launch and development of startups in the fitness and video game spaces, and led teams within Fortune 500 companies like Sony Network Entertainment in seeking clarity in chaos without compromising flexibility. Today, she serves as the Director of IT Governance and Compliance at Make-A-Wish America, supporting IT teams in bringing technical innovation to life and enabling chapters in their mission to grant the wish of every eligible child.

Jessica resides in Phoenix, Arizona with her husband, Bryan and her two dogs, Taco Gary and Atlas.
