Making Wishes Come True

Since its founding in 1983, the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Metro New York has granted the wishes of nearly 7,000 children facing life-threatening medical conditions. We could not do it without the help of many generous individuals and corporate partners. Your gift makes it possible for a child facing long hours of medical treatment to experience the hope, strength, and joy that is the power of a wish come true.
