About
Our mission is to shift the way society views and values our oldest generations by fulfilling seniors’ dreams and sharing their stories to inspire those of all ages.
In August 2020, WOL joined forces with AARP to become one of its charitable affiliates, helping people achieve long held goals while combatting the negative effects of isolation and strengthening social ties and intergenerational connections. Connecting wish recipients with the people and passions that are important to them is central to the organization’s work.
To date, WOL has granted over 2,000 wishes. The wishes we fulfill are varied and highly unique. Still, they can be categorized into 4 basic types of experiences:
- Renewing & Celebrating Passions
- Reconnecting Loved Ones
- Commemorating Service
- Fulfilling Lifelong Dreams

Educational Activities
Create the Change® partners with nonprofit organizations that we believe offer age-appropriate service opportunities for youth and families. All of our partners sign a collaboration agreement promising to provide age-appropriate activities in a safe environment.
Create the Change® does not run, host, or facilitate the service opportunities seen here, nor are we responsible in any way for the management (financial or otherwise) of the organizations we feature.
Always be sure to do your own research on the nonprofit organization and service opportunities available to make sure it's a good fit for you before getting started. You may find the organization's contact information on their profiles.
