Be part of the solution! Ask how.

The numbers of medically fragile children are growing exponentially due to life-saving medical advances made in the last decade that now allow these precious children to survive.

Yet, the very society who decides to save their lives doesn't realize the infrastructure to support their extraordinary health care needs doesn't exist.

Left to fend for themselves, many families give up their children because they feel there is no other choice.

Others endure abuse or inadequate care. 

These children need a voice. They need Dream House.

Reaching epidemic proportions, most of us have no idea this tragedy is taking place in our communities, throughout our state, and around the country.

You can help!

"Every child, perfectly formed or not, deserves a childhood," is the philosophy by which Dream House volunteer Terry Walls lives.

Care Enough
to Change a Life

A retired school teacher, Terry received a Dream House newsletter in the mail shortly after moving to Georgia. She called to see if volunteers were needed to help home-school children living at the Lilburn Transition Care Home. Now many years later, Terry is a vital member of the Dream House Volunteer Brigade. As a Certified Respite Care Provider, Terry also has the distinct honor of being a surrogate grandmother to many Dream House kids.

Each New Year, Terry pulls out a photograph album of "her kids" to celebrate how far they each have come. The progression of their strength and vitality shines through as compared with the haunting images of when she first met them. Get involved with the Dream House mission and influence positive change in a child's life, like Terry does every day.
