Brooke's Dream of helping another child may happen sooner than later!

Since our last article on Patch, things have been moving forward for Brooke's Dream Room! We got a great response to our Patch article, and now we are at 127 likes on Facebook! Brooke was so happy when we broke 100! Since then, we read a story on a neighborhood post about a little girl in Plainfield with Cystic Fibrosis. Her name is Kylie and she is only 3 years old, and would love her very own princess room. After speaking with her parents and telling them what we were trying to do, we all met and discussed the project. Although funding is not in place yet, we are all hoping things will come together somehow. I recently went to Cribs to College where I met Pete, and he will be getting back to me on how they are going to be able to help. I have also reached out to furniture manufacturers and hopefully I will have some good news soon! We have collected a few cash donations, one step closer to our goal! We still need donations for things like bedding, accessories, paint, artwork, lighting, etc.. so if you know anyone with a heart of gold, please pass along the info! Please like us on facebook, we are posting updates there. Thanks everyone who has spread the word or reached out in some way! Kylie and Brooke thank you!!! https://www.facebook.com/Brookesdreamroom?ref=hl http://www.brookesdreamroom.org
