Bowling For BedsJoin us for a fun-filled day of bowling at the Bowling For Beds event! Get ready to knock down pins and make a difference. This in-person event will take place on Sat Sept 16, 2023 at 300 Bronte Street South, Milton, ON L9T 1Y8.This amazing little fundraiser is in support of The Children&#x27;s Aid Foundation of Halton&#x27;s &quot;Dreams Begin At Home&quot; program which is a new program to help the most vulnerable youth as they move to independent living. How does the DREAMS Begin at Home program work?When young people who have been in the care of Halton CAS are no longer eligible for foster care or other programs, they need to find rooms or apartments where they can live independently.Most teens or young adults who leave their parent’s home can count on some practical help: the bed from their childhood bedroom with sheets and a comforter, a set of dishes and a toaster oven, maybe a box of bathroom supplies from the family’s closet. But youth coming out of foster care are often no longer in touch with their family, and foster parents need that bed for the next child placed in their home.CAFH is seeking to address this crisis by providing:* Beds (including bed frame, mattress and box spring) for young people who need them* Life-Start Kits including dishes, cutlery, linens, cleaning supplies and basic pantry foods – all the things a youth might need to set up home independently* As well, children and youth coming into the care of Halton CAS, or moving to a new placement, can be given a Comfort Kit: a backpack with new pajamas, socks, personal hygiene products, a book – and a cuddly teddy bear.The number of youth needing support from the DREAMS program is increasing, and CAFH is seeking additional funding so that these very vulnerable young people will have what they need as they move into adulthood. Their goal is to raise $40,000 to help support 160 children &amp; youth over the next year.The ultimate measure of success is for the youth to leave care and be positive and productive members of the community. The help they receive in times of high anxiety and extreme emotion is often the difference between success and failure. We also believe that when a child feels safe in their own bed is when they dare to DREAM about a happier future filled with hope.Come out and help us support such a wonderful initiative!😍 Bring your friends and family along for a fantastic time while supporting a great cause. All proceeds from this event will go towards providing beds for those in need. So, lace up your bowling shoes and get ready to strike it big!Whether you&#x27;re a seasoned bowler or a beginner, this event is suitable for all skill levels. We&#x27;ll have multiple lanes available, so gather your team and compete for the top spot. Don&#x27;t worry if you don&#x27;t have a team, we can match you up with other enthusiastic bowlers.Mark your calendars and don&#x27;t miss out on this exciting event.
