Make-A-Wish Offers Holiday Giving Program
Dear Friend of Make-A-Wish,
“Hope, Strength and Joy” are the
magical elements that a wish fulfilled brings to a seriously ill
child. It is a special kind of magic that you and your

The Make-A-Wish Foundation® of Suffolk
County is asking for your support as we continue our mission of
granting wishes to children with life threatening medical
conditions.
Our Holiday Giving Program
offers a unique way for you to honor your clients, vendors or
associates and help sponsor a child’s wish as well. It’s easy.
You simply make a donation to the Make-A-Wish Foundation® in
lieu of giving holiday gifts to clients and vendors. We will
create a unique, custom note for you to enclose in your company
holiday card.
Your donation can help make these
wishes come true this holiday season:
- Riley, age 3, from
Lindenhurst, suffers from end stage renal disease. She
wishes to go to Disney.
- Andy, age 10, from Central
Islip, suffers from sickel cell. His wish is to go to the
Dominican Republic.
- Robert, age 18, from Bay
Shore, has spina bifida and a flesh-eating disease. His wish
is to have his car re-furbished.

demonstrate the true spirit of giving and create lasting
memories for children with life-threatening medical conditions.
