How you feel when you first arrive to a new environment or even to an environment you are familiar with can greatly affect the initial feelings you have of safety, feeling welcomed, and ultimately "landing" and  connecting with the space.

The children, teens, and families who make their way to our big yellow Victorian house, up the stairs, across the porch, and through the blue door  know the courage it takes to arrive.

Our front porch, a most important "welcoming space" at The Children's Room, was sorely in need of repair.  Martin Conneely and Conneely Contracting, Inc., have supported our mission and our house renovations for many, many years. He and his skilled team have always worked tirelessly and meticulously to support the historic aesthetic of our treasured house. This summer they contracted with us to renovate our  entrance, the  first steps in welcoming our families!  

This work was funded by three generous donors including the Adelard A. Roy and Valdea Lea Roy Foundation. 

We encourage you to follow Chris's example and explore matching gifts at your office today.

Thank you, Chris, for all you do for TCR!
