World Wish Month is a global campaign to celebrate the magic of Make-A-Wish and the anniversary of the first Wish ever granted on April 29th.
HOW CAN I GET INVOLVED?
There are several events happening in our local community to celebrate World Wish Month and benefit Make-A-Wish Vermont & Northeast New York.
- Visit Our Local Upstate New York Applebee's Location: Now through May 4th, guests who donate $5 or more to Make-A-Wish at Applebee's will receive a voucher for a FREE order of Mozzarella Sticks on their next visit. 100% of the $5 goes directly to our chapter. On April 29th, T.L. Cannon will match all donations.
