Meet A Forever Dreamer: Christopher Mahussier

In 2016, I took a sabbatical from work and spent time volunteering in the city with children's charities. The Dream Factory had a call out for volunteers, so I reached out and the rest is history!

The Dreams that come true from The Dream Factory are very special to the families and the Dream Kids. When I see the pictures and hear the stories, I know that these Dreams have a real impact. This is why I chose to make a planned gift to The Dream Factory.

My hope is that my gift will inspire others to consider making the same in their will. I want to leave a legacy that helps continue the Dream Factory mission long into the future, helping Dream Kids for years to come.
