shows children who have received a wish are able to build the physical and emotional strength needed
to fight critical illnesses. Since its inception in 1986, the Hudson Valley Chapter has granted wishes to
over 2,600 children in the community it serves. The Chapter’s territory spans eight counties of the
Hudson Valley, including Delaware, Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Sullivan, Ulster and
Westchester. The Chapter is a Better Business Bureau Wise Alliance Accredited Charity, meeting the
