History
In the fall of 2001, Laura Moore founded The Dream House for Kids, Inc. as a non-profit organization dedicated to establishing the resources needed to get medically fragile children out of institutions. The goal was to save these children from neglectful and abusive situations and give them the home, family and future they so desperately needed to live. As the organization continued to grow and develop, the name was officially changed in December 2002 to Dream House For Medically Fragile Children, Inc. and the focus expanded to the metro Atlanta Area to create the community support and partnerships necessary to develop and organize the needed resources for hundreds more children and families.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
“No cause is left but the most ancient of all, the one, in fact, that from the beginning of our history has determined the very existence of politics, the cause of freedom versus tyranny.”
—Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)
“The history of work has been, in part, the history of the worker’s body. Production depended on what the body could accomplish with strength and skill. Techniques that improve output have been driven by a general desire to decrease the pain of labor as well as by employers’ intentions to escape dependency upon that knowledge which only the sentient laboring body could provide.”
—Shoshana Zuboff (b. 1951)
