Director, Wish Program

Steven Glaser

Steven draws deep inspiration from his grandfather, a World War II veteran whose stories of courage and camaraderie left an indelible mark on his heart. When he discovered Wish of a Lifetime, he knew he’d found a calling that resonated with his personal values.

Steven joined the Wish of a Lifetime team in 2012. Early in his career, he led six trips to Washington D.C. with World War II veterans, which he describes as some of the most formative experiences of his life. Steven excels in streamlining systems and processes and has a proven track record of building mission-driven teams that deliver exceptional results.

When he’s not celebrating his team’s accomplishments by banging the “Wish Gong” or leading the charge to deliver life-changing experiences for those we serve, you can catch him hiking with his wife, daughter, and dog, training for his next race, or traveling across the country. A Sonoran Desert transplant, Steven is also known to “bring the heat” on the pickleball court.
