As word of our efforts continues to spread, we are getting to know families from all over. We have seen that the connection among families who have children facing a serious medical crisis can be incredibly strong.

Many of our referrals come from families we have already helped. These families have experienced the impact our work has first hand and have an overwhelming desire to pay it forward.

Once we select a family, we meet with them to find out what their child’s interests, passions, favorite colors, and physical needs are.

No two children are alike and we believe that their rooms should reflect their individuality.

Our designers work together to create a vision for each room. Depending on the needs of the family, this may involve selecting paint, wallpaper, flooring, furniture, bedding, fabrics, window coverings, and decorative accents.

When the design is complete, we collaborate with our network of professionals who work with us closely to transform each room.

We also reach out to our fabulous vendors, many of whom donate their products (blankets, furniture, art, etc.) to us because they believe so firmly in our mission.

As designing and planning takes place, we simultaneously share the family’s story with our community of supporters.

Through social media, advertising, and community events, we raise awareness of the adversity each family is facing.

With these efforts, we inform our community of “Savvy Givers” of ways in which they can help us gather the funds and materials that we need to create the ultimate dream room for each child.

Finally, the day that we install the room arrives. What follows is difficult to put into words, but suffice it to say that “the big reveal” is what makes all of our hard work so satisfying and motivates us to take on projects for as many families as we possibly can.

Photographers and videographers working on a voluntary basis capture the moment so that it can be shared with friends, loved ones, and the community that made it all possible.
