In February 2021, Amentum announced a three-year partnership with Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic, a non-profit that creates life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses who reside in the District of Columbia, Maryland, and northern Virginia. During the partnership, Amentum became a Founding Partner of Operation Dream Maker to focus on granting wishes to children of Uniformed Services families. Since a third of Amentum’s employees are veterans, it’s a cause near to our people.
“Our uniformed services families have the added stress of their service, including deployments. We are honored to partner with Amentum to provide these heroes with the transformative and uplifting experiences that only Make-A-Wish can provide,” said Lesli Creedon, Make-A-Wish Mid-Atlantic President and CEO.
As a proud partner, we have already granted wishes to 16 children of families who are currently active duty, reserves, or veterans. Here are some of the wish kids:
