MAKE-A-WISH FOUNDATION OF THE HUDSON VALLEY INC

TARRYTOWN, New York, 10591-6600 United States

Mission Statement

Together, we create life-changing wishes for children with critical illnesses.

About This Cause

Since receiving its charter in 1986, Make-A-Wish® Hudson Valley has granted the wishes of more than 2,800 children in the Hudson Valley region with critical illnesses. Serving the eight counties of Delaware, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster, and Westchester, the Chapter’s mission is to ensure that every child residing in the Hudson Valley who qualifies for Make-A-Wish services is granted his or her fondest wish. While wishes are referred and completed on an ongoing basis, an average of 120 wishes are in progress at any given time. A volunteer Board of Directors and staff of 12, together with volunteers, donors and medical professionals from throughout the region, make wish granting possible. Among the Hudson Valley Chapter’s recently completed wishes are: to have vlogging equipment; meeting Jane Goodall; going to the MBL All-Star Game; traveling to Japan; a trip to Disney World, and being a model for a day. Make-A-Wish® America provides the Hudson Valley Chapter with technical assistance, training, national coordination and support; however, all funds required to grant wishes are raised entirely within the Hudson Valley. Transform lives, one wish at a time.
