Fall is officially upon us and our Special Spaces team is welcoming the new season with open arms!  It's exciting to announce that our Dream Big Gala is right around the corner; be sure to SAVE THE DATE ~ February 24, 2017.  We look forward to an inspirational night together! 

We are so thankful for all of our volunteers whose dedication and passion continue to move our mission forward.  We truly are changing children's lives one bedroom at a time. Please feel free to   contact Special Spaces if you would like to join us in this important mission.

 


September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month, a time to honor and remember children and families affected by these rare diseases, and help rally support to give kids with cancer better outcomes by supporting our groundbreaking research. 

More children are being diagnosed with cancer today than ever before. Let's change that. Be sure to spread the word on social media by using the hashtag #GoGold

National Good Neighbor Day is observed annually on September 28.  This day was created to acknowledge and celebrate the importance of a good neighbor.

Not so long ago, the world felt like a smaller place, and everybody knew everybody else in their neighborhood. Now, many of us aren't familiar with our neighbors, and only speak to them in passing. Why not use Good Neighbor Day as an opportunity to lend a proverbial cup of sugar, and get to know the people who live nearby? 

~ It is a blessing to have a good neighbor but it is even a greater thing to BE a good neighbor. ~
 


Our Special Spaces team really enjoyed working with volunteers from the Woman's Club of Wisconsin on sweet 2-year-old Mirabel's whimsical wonderland bedroom makeover ~ THANK YOU LADIES!!!

We're grateful to Ken from Crayons Gone Wild Murals for painting a beautiful one-of-a-kind canvas for sweet little Mirabel and also to Steinhafels for their continued support. THANKS to ALL who came together today to support this special mission. Mirabel's new dream bedroom now is a fun-filled whimsical place where she can heal, find comfort and peace.    

   



Thanks again to Team Mirabel!!
