Celebrating 3 Years as a Great Place To Work®

June 23, 2025

Make-A-Wish® Canada is proud to be Certified by Great Place To Work for the third year in a row. This prestigious award is based entirely on what our current employees say about their work experience. At Make-A-Wish Canada, creating a positive, inclusive, and supportive workplace isn’t just a goal—it’s something we actively measure and grow. That’s why we’re incredibly proud that 98% of our staff participated in this year’s Great Place to Work survey. 

That kind of participation is powerful. It’s a clear sign that our team is engaged, invested, and deeply committed to shaping our culture. When nearly every staff member takes the time to share what’s working, what could be better, and how we can grow together—it tells us we’re building something special. 

Their voices guide us. Their feedback drives us forward. And their dedication fuels the impact we make every day for children with critical illnesses. 

Why is a Great Place To Work Certification Important?  

The great place to work survey process allows us to obtain valuable feedback from our staff so that we can understand and continue to improve our employee experience and workplace culture. Being a Great Place To Work certified organization is a powerful indicator that we have created a working environment that our current and future employees will want to be a part of.   

According to Great Place To Work researchOpens in new tab, job seekers are 4.5 times more likely to find a great boss at a Certified great workplace. Additionally, employees at Certified workplaces are 93% more likely to look forward to coming to work, and have a fair chance at promotion. 

What is a Great Place to Work Certification? 

Great Place To Work Certification is the most definitive “employer-of-choice” recognition that companies aspire to achieve. It is the only recognition based entirely on what employees report about their workplace experience – specifically, how consistently they experience a high-trust workplace. Great Place to Work Certification is recognized worldwide by employees and employers alike and is the global benchmark for identifying and recognizing outstanding employee experience. Every year, more than 10,000 companies across 60 countries apply to get Great Place To Work-Certified.
