BE A 'GAME CHANGER' - HOST YOUR OWN FUNDRAISER TO GRant WISHES
We invite you and your peers to join in our mission and be a “Game Changer” in the lives of our wish children by hosting a fundraising event; i.e. backyard bbqs, dinner events, fitness challenges, walk-a-thons, dance-a-thons (or anything you choose-get creative!) to help make their wishes come true.
We welcome the opportunity to help you help us!
♦ Your event will be posted on our website and all of our social media platforms.
♦ We can provide signage, literature, coordinate an MLF representative to speak/volunteers to assist you.
YOU can be a GAME CHANGER on a child’s outlook during a very difficult time of their life.
It’s a Win-Win for everyone!
The Marty Lyons Foundation will benefited once again from the efforts of the Suffolk County Chapter of the NYS School Facilities Association as they hosted their 21st Annual Casino Night. This event has helped grant special wishes to children between the ages of 3 to 17 who have been diagnosed with life-threatening or terminal illnesses for 21 years. Each year bringing enormous awareness and over $1Million total raised.
The evening program included special words by Marty Lyons thanking them for their dedication to the Foundation’s mission. This year’s event helped grant Kylie’s wish! Kylie is a 10 year-old girl from Hauppauge, NY who was diagnosed with a life-threatening and rare genetic disorder. As she is an ultimate girly girl, but still a JETS fan, she dreamed of having a pink bike to be able to ride outside on her own.

Her Mom said; “The Smile of a girl who got her wish to ride her bike and the excited yell of a mama who’s been waiting for this day.”
