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:
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
“In the history of the human mind, these glowing and ruddy fables precede the noonday thoughts of men, as Aurora the sun’s rays. The matutine intellect of the poet, keeping in advance of the glare of philosophy, always dwells in this auroral atmosphere.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Properly speaking, history is nothing but the crimes and misfortunes of the human race.”
—Pierre Bayle (1647–1706)
