Celebrating our 300th Dream!
Dream Fulfilled
There is nothing more heart-warming than seeing the joy of a child. Dream Coordinator, Molly, was able to see this x3 while working with the ‘Smith’ family. ‘Max’ 4, ‘Justin’ 5, and ‘Frankie’ 7 have a family member with a chronic illness that has taken up most of the family’s time, energy, and attention and has caused much financial strain. Along with their mother, these resilient kids live with their grandparents who help provide support to the family. They stay positive and hopeful being together as a family. They asked for the smallest things but they have the biggest impact. They are all going on the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad when it re-opens in 2021 and received a family membership to the Zoo for a full year of memory making. ‘James’ received new toys and clothes. ‘Max’ got new toys, an iPad, and art supplies. ‘Frankie received a mother/daughter spa day, an iPad, and toys. They could’t wait to see Molly and kept asking when the would get to talk to her. Through the smiles and laughter, ‘Frankie’ told Molly that she is better than Santa. A moment that Molly and the family will never forget.
