Dear friends,
For eight years, our program has remained true to its mission, without losing sight of its sole purpose: to get children off the floor and into a bed of their own. When asked, “What’s new?” at Sweet Dream Makers, our response is steadfast – it’s not a new project, or deviating from A Bed of My Own® – it’s the volume of impact.
The families referred to us face challenging times – working with nearly 200 social service agency partners, we answer the call to solve their situational bedlessness. Your belief in the efficiency and empowerment of our program changes lives daily. With humility and fortitude, we have provided nearly 30,000 beds since 2017. Your dedication to our program ensures that our neighbors live with dignity, and their children feel safe in a bed of their own.
Because you chose to stay steadfast with us this past year, your support delivered a record 7,026 beds in 2024, averaging 600 beds per month. Now in our 9th year of operation, 2025 is on track to exceed last year’s impact. I was honored with an Opal Award in January 2024 from The Rotary Club of Boca Raton, chosen by supporters who have witnessed our evolution and expansion to meet the staggering need. Our vision remains clear, and our program is transparent, with direction from my Board of Directors, who oversee all aspects of our program. Each member offers their time, talent, and treasure, facilitating our growth throughout South Florida.
Thanks to you, no child has ever had to wait to receive a Bed of Their Own from Sweet Dream Makers. Our community’s capacity to give is unmatched, and your belief in our mission is fully understood. I invite you to read about our impact in our 2024 Annual Report, and I hope you are proud and confident in our work. With great admiration and appreciation, thank you for making sweet dreams come true!
All my very best,
Suzanne Broad, Founder and Executive Director of Sweet Dream Makers
