Home - Honoree Video Interviews

"We are so often caught up in our destination that we forget to appreciate the journey, especially the goodness of the people we meet on the way. Appreciation is a wonderful feeling, don't overlook it."

I wanted to share this post on The Home for Little Wanderers Website http://www.thehome.org/

"More than 900 people were at the Seaport World Trade Center on the evening of May 28, 2008 to celebrate the creative artwork and writing of children served by The Home’s residential programs. In addition to the exhibit, the evening included a silent auction, diamond raffle, dinner and program. As part of our celebration, we honored three alumni of The Home who shared their moving stories with us. It was a wonderful evening, raising nearly $1 million for The Home".

"On behalf of all the children and families we serve, our heartfelt thanks to the corporations, individuals and foundations who made this event such a spectacular success through their sponsorship and support".
