About us
Make-A-Wish® Utah creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses. 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. Research shows children who have wishes granted can build the physical and emotional strength they need to fight a critical illness. Located in its facility in Murray, A Wishing Place, Make-A-Wish® Utah offers a life-affirming wish experience at a time of critical need. We have granted over 3,000 wishes for Utah families since 1985. The average cash cost of a wish is $10,000 dollars and we rely on private donations from individuals, small businesses, foundations and corporations to grant wishes as unique as the child that wishes for them. We are grateful for the entities that partner with our profound mission and reputable brand.

I've been fortunate to work with Frank Nilson for over ten years. Like many, I consider him an amazing colleague, friend, and person. After serving over 3,000 Utah Wish Families, Frank is retiring and moving to a part-time role. He's brought so much passion and fun to the Make-A-Wish culture and is everyone's favorite person. Happy retirement, Frank!
After over 25 years with Make-A-Wish Utah, our revered Program Director, Frank Nilson, is retiring. Frank is a Make-A-Wish icon who has not only worked diligently and passionately for our mission, but has also been an avid and effective advocate, inspiring countless others to join us to reach every eligible child. In his time as a Make-A-Wish employee, Frank oversaw the granting of 3,000 wishes, ensuring each recipient had a one-of-a-kind experience! Please join us in extending a huge congratulations to Frank on a career to be enormously proud of. Frank, your legacy and personality will continue to inspire your fellow staff members, wish families, volunteers, and Make-A-Wish Utah.
