The Community Foundations of the Hudson Valley (CFHV) recently hosted its annual GardenParty at the Highlands County Club in Garrison, New York. This signature fundraising event of the region grossed over $210,000 to support CFHV’s mission of awarding grants that address some of the region’s most pressing needs, including housing, mental health, childcare, food security and more.
This year, CFHV recognized five Hudson Valley residents for their philanthropic giving: Michael Fleischer and Michael Dupree of Dutchess County, Garry and Diane Kvistad of Ulster County and George Whipple III of Putnam County. Their generosity and commitment help strengthen communities across the Hudson Valley.
