HIV-AIDS "Make a Wish" Grants Available

    The Butterworth Foundation, Inc., of Orange, Mass., announces the continuation of its ‘make-a-wish’ grant program for people living with HIV/AIDS in specified areas of Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire. A wish is defined as something that the individual wants but has never had the time or resources to attain since contracting HIV/AIDS — generally a one-time occurrence or need. It should be something primarily for enjoyment.
      Applicants must be able to document their HIV/AIDS status and must reside in Cheshire County, NH; Windham County, VT, Franklin County, MA, and the following towns in Worcester County, MA: Ashburnham, Athol, Barre, Gardner, Hardwick, Hubbardston, Petersham, Phillipston, Royalston, Templeton and Winchendon. The residential and status requirements are strictly enforced.
      Guidelines and an application form are available from HIV-AIDS agencies in the specific geographic area or by writing to: Butterworth Foundation, Inc., PO Box 653, Orange MA 01364
