Our Privacy Policy

The Make-A-Wish Foundation of Tri-Counties has created this statement in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to privacy. The following discloses our information gathering and dissemination practices for this Web site: www.tri-counties.wish.org.

Personal contact information we collect and what we do with it
When you are subscribing to our E-news section, we ask you for personal contact information including your name, mailing address, phone number, and e-mail address. We will use this contact information to provide you with information or resources you have requested, such as information about the Make-A-Wish Foundation or we will use your information to contact you to clarify or verify other information, such as a donation you made, or a wish child that you have referred.

We will not add your name and contact information to any mailing lists without your prior knowledge or express permission. In other words, we will always ask or inform you before adding you to a mailing list. If we do not, you will not be added. If you have agreed to be added to one of our mailing lists, such as our e-mail newsletter list or regular mailing list, then you may receive from us news about the Make-A-Wish Foundation and information on how you can support the organization's mission.

Personal contact information is not shared with any organization outside of the Make-A-Wish Foundation and our agents (reputable companies we use for services, such as shipping Make-A-Wish Foundation products or sending Make-A-Wish Foundation mail).

Information from Forms
Our site's forms require users to give us contact information (like their name, phone number, and e-mail address). We will use this contact information to provide you with information or resources you have requested, such as information about the Make-A-Wish Foundation or we will use your information to contact you to clarify or verify other information, such as a donation you made, or a wish child that you have referred.

Other contact information we collect and what we do with it
In some instances, we ask for contact information for people other than yourself - for example, e-mail addresses of friends to whom you wish to send a copy of one of our pages. Such contact information is not added to any mailing list nor is the information shared with any other organization. Collecting such information for our own use is called prospecting. The Make-A-Wish Foundation does not prospect.

How to view or change your information
You can view and request changes to all the information you have given us, including any mailing lists you may be on, by contacting us one of two ways:

Send a letter to:
