A Dream Come True!


David's dream came true on Sunday when he was taken to the Denver Broncos vs. New England Patriots game in Denver. He had an amazing day, and our chaperone and board member, Eric Kidd, puts it best:

"Being able to accompany David and his grandmother and sister on Sunday's dream was an absolutely wonderful adventure. From the limo ride to the game to dinner afterwards, you could truly tell that David and his family were soaking in every part of the experience. While David and I watched the game intently, his grandmother and sister were watching every move of the cheerleaders (not to mention everyone's surprise when we watched the halftime entertainment - monkeys riding dogs that were wrangling sheep!) As the day came to a close, Mary pulled me aside at dinner, "You know, you've really made his dream come true." She continued, "He's been so excited leading up to today and I can tell he had a great time."

As I put my arm around her and pulled her in close for a hug, I whispered the only thing that came to mind, "that's what we're here for..."

In this case, the name of our organization and it's tagline became all the more moving to me. This truly was A Child's Dream... Fulfilled."

Thank you for all you have done to make his dream a reality. We couldn't do this great work without you.
Sincerely,
Katie Reiff
