SWEET DREAMS

Yesterday marked part two of a Kiwanis sponsored event called SWEET DREAMS IN A BAG


It started back in October when we gathered en masse at the Salvation Army in Broomfield to assemble some 100 bags


They include all new bedding, a toy, and story book tailored to the specific child receiving the gift


We distributed 50 of them yesterday


Many of these children navigate multiple homes before adulthood and have little or nothing to call theirs, and much of that is hand me downs or seconds from charities


This event affords them with a true mechanism of rest


It's theirs forever


"FATIGUE MAKES COWARDS OF US ALL"

- GEN. GEORGE S. PATTON, JR


We know in our own lives that proper sleep is the Lynch Pin


Susie and Wayne Fox are the GOD Sends who started this in 2010


As of yesterday they have distributed some 23,000 bags throughout Colorado


They would love to see folks in other states start up their version


Reach out to them if you are interested!


GOD BLESS AMERICA??????
