Share Your Wish, an organization started by an Irvington family, allows kids to “share” their birthday with up to three charitable organizations of their choosing. Guests contribute to the child’s birthday page, and after the birthday, Share Your Wish distributes the money collected between the child and the charities the child selected. Share Your Wish teaches generosity and compassion by making birthday celebrations more about giving and spending time with friends and less about getting more “stuff.” It gives kids a chance to make a difference. Please keep us in mind as your child plans his or her birthday party this year. Did you know? In addition to including Share Your Wish in your celebration plans, there are many other ways to support the Bulldog Family Fund and the PTSA when you patronize local businesses and shop online. Check out your options here. A few times a year, the Irvington NY PTSA hosts a General Membership Meeting during which we share updates on our organization's goals and focus areas. We also hold important votes on issue of interest to our members. For this Fall's meeting, we're excited to welcome a special guest: Ms. Danielle Gamar, LCSW and Student Assistance Counselor for IUFSD.
