Helping Families Facing Life’s Hardest Moments
Inspired by Jordan O’Malley’s legacy, Jordan’s Wish supports families navigating serious illness through financial assistance, emotional support, and practical care.
When Illness Strikes, Families Face More Than Fear
Serious illness brings overwhelming emotional and financial burdens. Travel costs, meals away from home, lost wages, and unexpected expenses quickly add up. Jordan’s Wish exists to help families carry these burdens so they can focus on what matters most.
The Wish That
Started It All
Jordan Leigh O’Malley passed away from brain cancer in March 2016, just weeks before her 20th birthday. Her joy and compassion touched everyone she met.
After experiencing the incredible support of their community, Jordan’s final wish was to help other families facing the same journey. Jordan’s Wish was created to carry that wish forward.

You Help Make Stories Like These Possible
"I am writing to share my personal testimonial regarding Team Jordan and the profound impact this organization has had on me.
Team Jordan awarded me a college scholarship that significantly relieved the financial stress of paying for my education. This support allowed me to become the first person in my family to pursue a secondary degree, an achievement that has made a lasting difference for both me and my family, changing the trajectory of my career and life.
The mission of Team Jordan is rooted in a deep love and care for the community, and their commitment to students like me has been truly life-changing. Having known Jordan for a short time, I can truly say she would be incredibly proud, honored, and thankful for all the organization has done. I hope my story illustrates the vital importance of their work."

"From the very first day Team Jordan Started helping people, My Husband and I were one of the many who would contribute to the fund raisers, sales and walked in the first couple Head for the Cure walks to help raise funds so Jordan Wish could help others.
Then we became the recipients of a Jordan Wish donation after my Husband was diagnosed with esophageal cancer. We had only known one side of the impact that a donation can truly due to help someone who is in a situation that they probably never thought they would have to go through, to seeing how much it truly means and impacts the ones on the other side of donation."
