New York Teen Uses Wish to Pay it Forward

Most Make-a-Wish kids want to use their wishes to do something that they have always wanted to do. Alyssa Fenton decided to use her wish to build a garden. The 17-year-old used her wish to build a garden and courtyard area at the Third Age Adult Day Center on SUNY Plattsburgh's campus. 

She wanted to help people who suffer from Dementia, Alzheimers and other special needs. She often spends her time volunteering at the center and working with as many people as possible. 

Fenton’s goal is to try to raise money for the center as well. Her picture will be featured on a star to help raise awareness for the fundraiser.
