The Wish Project

Connecting non-profit agencies to the public “one wish at a time”. We help more than 100 non-profit agencies in the Merrimack Valley to get needed goods for their low-income clients. We coordinate the delivery of goods to clients through the case workers that know them best. Most agencies are from the Greater Lowell and Lawrence area. The clients served include families, battered women, children, teens and single adults in shelter, and new immigrants from more than 14 countries. Most wishes are for home or baby goods. We do not accept wishes from clients directly. We want to be sure that clients are getting all the services that they are due and are in the system.

Volunteers

The Wish Project’s mission is to help families in need establish long-term residency by providing basic needs to provide critical immediate assistance to homeless families, victims of fire or disaster; and to support the community. Our goal is to provide local people in need with basic furniture, home goods and baby goods, while helping the planet by recycling used goods. Only when people have their basic needs met can they move forward and out of the social services system. By providing basic goods to people in crisis, we help alleviate some stress in the short term while helping to end homelessness in the long term. We serve with a passionate team of staff, volunteers, community partners, and board of directors.
