Berni & Murcer's Dream Creator's at Work!
Our remarkably talented team of interns and staff, aka the “Dream Creators" continue to develop fun and exciting virtual engagement games and activities for the children and their siblings to play either individually or together. These games include a sled race, an ice cave scavenger hunt, a Swiss hockey game, just to name a few! Nintendo has nothing on these talented young adults!!
These new innovations will enhance the multi-dimensional and therapeutic healing experience for children with cancer and turn the trauma, pain and fear into hope, comfort and encouragement for a brighter, healthier tomorrow. "Based on the findings, computer games seem to be effective as a tool in influencing health-related behavior and improving the Quality of Life(QOL) of children undergoing chemotherapy. Therefore, according to the findings of this study, computer games can be used to improve the QOL of children undergoing chemotherapy." (Source: NIH, 2017)

The late, legendary film actor, humanitarian and advocate for children with cancer, Chadwick Boseman, who tragically lost his battle with colon cancer at age 43, knew the importance of something as simple as a video game to a child battling cancer.
"...It's something meaningful to them. It's the anticipation of the chance to experience even a toy or a video game. It made me think back to being a kid...you wait for these moments..."
Thank You Chadwick for being a "Superhero" to ALL children, both on and off the screen with your soulful wisdom, strength, compassion and understanding in a way that only a real-life Superhero could AND for being a shining North Star for our mission. May you Rest in Power.
