Welcome to the website of the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Northeast New York.

We are excited to share with you the many aspects of our wonderful mission, including great stories about our Wish Kids and the people and events helping to make their wishes come true.  We are thrilled to have granted our 1,100th wish in July 2010.   We thank you for helping us to be part of the medicine for the seriously ill children we serve in upstate New York.  Together, we will continue to bring hope, strength and joy to them and their families.

Gratefully,
William C. Trigg, III, Ph.D.
Chief Executive Officer
