Deliver the Dream headed back to the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains for it's 78th retreat weekend with Children's Healthcare of Atlanta serving families who have a child with Sickle Cell Anemia. The breathtaking, Amicalola Falls State Park, was the pefect setting for this retreat full of love, laughter and fun! Families had a chance to make s'mores around the campfire, create plays and collages in Artworld, break it down at a dance party, hold live snakes, learn about birds and owls, sing their hearts out at karaoke, test their luck at BINGO and still even had time to hike the falls! This was certainly a special retreat weekend and one that we all will remember for a long time!

When one person is ill, whether that person is a child or an adult, the entire family is impacted. Although there are hundreds of special needs camps in the United States serving children with serious illness, there is a huge deficit in programs that address the needs of the entire family unit.
Deliver the Dream is dedicated to the mission of helping families experiencing an illness such as Sickle Cell, Cancer, Cerebral Palsy and Autism. Through each four-day, three-night retreat, Deliver the Dream provides families the opportunity to escape the overwhelming stress of a serious illness, find time to reunite, enjoy recreational activities, and gain support from others who are coping with similar situations.
