July/Aug 2018

 
 Providing New Bedding,

Caring and Love to Children 

This note was written by a Mom from her son:

Dear Sweet Dream in a Bag,
I'm writing to say thank you for my cool Thomas the Train bedset.  It fits like a dream.  Now I will always have something to call mine.  I will also never sleep in a cold bed again because I now know Thomas is there to keep me nice and safe and super warm.  So once again thank you so much.  I couldn't be happier!

 

We hope you are having a wonderful Summer!

Remember we will not be having a "Pack & Pray" in July.  

Please go to the website and sign up, reserve your tables and join us Aug. 18th for the August Pack & Pray. We will be having a great morning packing getting ready for the Fall!  

Please Sign Up on Website for All Events!

Go to: www.Sweetdreaminabag.org and sign up in the "VOLUNTEER" area for each event you plan on attending.

Sweet Dream is so excited that so many people are willing to help at our once a month "PACK & PRAY EVENTS".  We are trying to find a way to make sure everyone that wants to participate will have a table. Please be sure to mark the number of people coming and the number of tables needed on our web-site.  If you bring a group, please limit it to 10-12 people.  Many of you have helped for years and we so appreciate you volunteering.  Signing  up helps us better plan for each Pack & Pray event.  When you sign-up we will reserve you table(s) for folding.  Sweet Dream always provides a light lunch after we are done packing and all are welcome to stay and enjoy the lunch and time with old and new friends!

Summer is a great time to do a little planning:

Could you do a fund raiser for Sweet Dream? Think about what groups you are in or who you know. A Pillow Drive or a Toothbrush & Toothpaste Drive or maybe a Twin Sheet Set Drive.  Everyone wants to give and help when it really makes a difference.  At Sweet Dream we are touching children's lives and making an impact on quality sleep time!  We are always willing to come talk to any group or you can direct people to our web-site video. The video gives people an idea of just what Sweet Dream is all about.  It has been amazing what a little planning and creativeness can generate!  We have had Optimist Club members donate the money won from a Trivia Night, a school decided to have a Toothpaste & Toothbrush Drive for the second year and one family had a Pine Wood Derby and charged an entry fee and donated the proceeds.  We have several ladies that get their friends together to bring new bedding and to pack Sweet Dream Bags as a group.  The opportunities are endless!!!  What exciting ideas can you come up with for Sweet Dream children this Fall??

BEANIE BABIES
Sweet Dream needs more Beanie Babies.  Your collection that you have stored in a plastic box is just waiting for some kids to love and enjoy!  Mention this to your friends and neighbors--seems everyone knows someone that has a tub full of Beanie Babies just looking for a new, loving home!  We put a Beanie Baby in each child's Sweet Dream Bag for them to love!
Sweet Dream Needs:
  • Toothpaste--travel size or larger is great!
  • Toothbrushes
  • Beanie Baby soft, cuddly toys
  • Twin Sheet Sets
  • ***Any of these needs could become a "collection drive" for your work, youth group, club or neighborhood!

Donate $50 each month:  
$50 gives one child a month their own Sweet Dream Bedding.  They will sleep in night after night, that would be 12 kids a year sleeping warm and cozy each night, just from your donation!
