Retired executive officer of the Peterborough and the Kawarthas Association of Realtors,\u00a0Carolyn Mills began the Sweet Dreams program, in 2011. \u00a0Sweet Dreams provides comfortable pyjamas, bedding and pillows to the Kawartha-Haliburton Children’s Foundation to be given to children in our community who are receiving assistance from the Kawartha-Haliburton Children’s Aid Society.<\/p>\n

Children often arrive at new foster homes with very few possessions. \u00a0Many don\u2019t have pyjamas to wear that first night with a new family, and it\u2019s a very crucial night. \u00a0Away from their own families and away from familiar surroundings, snuggling up in cozy new pyjamas and new bedding, chosen just for them gives these children a sense that someone cares. \u00a0Hopefully, it also brings the feeling of a warm hug at bedtime.<\/p>\n

The Foundation, Carolyn and the Sweet Dreams program also provides pyjamas and bedding to families participating in the Kawartha-Haliburton Children’s Aid Society Family Preservation Program. \u00a0As needed, bedding items are delivered directly to families by Kawartha-Haliburton Children’s Aid Society child welfare workers to their homes or to their alternative care settings.<\/p>\n
