Strong Valley was pleased to support the recent Gala of Wishes in Fresno. Hosted by the Central California chapter of the Make-A-Wish Foundation, this annual gala raises money to grant wishes for children battling critical illnesses. Since the chapter was founded in 1983, it has granted more than 9,000 wishes for children across Central California. The event kicked off at The Painted Table with a cocktail reception and raffle, followed by a dinner prepared by Chef de Cuisine.
