THE STORY:
The Garden of Dreams Foundation is proud to have been selected as one of the ING NYC Marathon charity partners. Garden of Dreams embraces the opportunity to be part of the world's largest marathon and to raise funds to continue “to make dreams come true for children facing obstacles.”
Garden of Dreams is a 501c3 non-profit charity that works closely with all areas of The Madison Square Garden Company, including the New York Knicks, Rangers, Liberty, MSG Media, MSG Entertainment and Fuse. The Foundation strives to be heroic, inspirational and unforgettable – all attributes of the children the Foundation has had the privilege to meet over the course of its history.
Partnering with a diverse collection of twenty-two outstanding children’s related organizations – from hospitals, to foster organizations, to homeless shelters and “wish” organizations, the Garden of Dreams Foundation has a singular goal each and every day – to utilize the power and magic of Madison Square Garden and its properties to bring joy and happiness to children facing obstacles – whether they relate to illness, homelessness, poverty, foster care issues or tragedy.
