Any team is only as good as the people who make up its roster, and our charitable organization is no exception!Our standards are high at SKW, and we chose people, who above all, have a genuine commitment to children with special needs, and the wishes granted by our charity.  Each carefully screened volunteer contributes their own unique blend of abilities, experience, and expertise for the common good. Since our founding in 2000, the end result has been a truly rewarding and effective outdoor wish-granting charity. The end result is a truly rewarding and effective outdoor wish granting charity!


We are fortunate to have a highly qualified Board of Directors to help oversee the management and direction of SKW. Throughout their years of experience in a wide range of fields, they help establish sound operating procedures and policies, while lending great insight and input on major charity issues.  Our Board is committed to the principles of respect, compassion, and equality set forth in our SKW Constitution.  The Board's Code of Ethics serve as laws of conduct for association volunteers and staff in their capacity as board members.  Members of the Board affirm their endorsement of the Code, and acknowledge their commitment to uphold its principles and obligations by accepting and retaining membership on the Board without receiving any source of income from SKW or its affiliate.
