Coping With Cancer With Cottage Dreams

Coping With Cancer With Cottage Dreams.
Imagine an organization that provides beautiful cottages free of charge to families battling cancer. A place to get away - to relax, to rest, to reconnect with one another - and to create beautiful family memories during a deeply challenging time. Good idea? Seana O'Neill thought so too. So she created Cottage Dreams

Seana realized that there was a wealth of opportunity that needed only generosity of spirit (though lots of it!) and organization (just a ton or so) to make Cottage Dreams a reality. Since 2003, more than 2500 people have benefited from the organization. Cottage Dreams is an idea that helps families on both sides of the equation, as giving can be every bit as heart-warming, satisfying and meaningful as receiving. For everyone involved - it's a gift.

How can you get involved? There are many ways to help!
1. You can make a cash donation to Cottage Dreams at CanadaHelps
2. Got some corporate contacts? There are many marvelous corporate sponsorship opportunities
3. Volunteer your time at one of the many fun fund raising events organized to assist the ongoing operation of Cottage dreams
4. Donate a week at your cottage

From now until September there are lots of opportunities to take part and find out more about Cottage Dreams. Check out Cottage Dreams Events for a complete listing.
If you live in the Ottawa area, Cottage Dreams will be represented at the Cottage and Backyard Show April 9-11th.

And Seana is one of our Get Involved profilees for the month of April. Look for her profile on TVO and on our "Watch" page. Her story is more than inspiring and hopeful - it's immensely helpful (and moving) too!
