Thank you Alcoa and Kawneer
The “A Dream Come True” Volunteers appreciate the Alcoa and Kawneer companies for becoming involved with our community service project. During the winter of 2007, the playground received a $5,000 grant through the Alcoa Foundation for the “A Dream Come True” Accessible Inclusive Playground!
The generosity and kindness demonstrated by the Alcoa Foundation and the employees of these businesses will make a significant difference in the playground. On behalf of the playground volunteers and the children who will one day play on the “A Dream Come True” playground, please accept our most sincere thanks for extending a helping hand when we needed it the most.
The Alcoa Foundation grant will pay for our Little Fire Station; Dalmatian Station. The Little Fire Station is a wonderful and unique play structure designed just for our playground. It will encourage educational, creative play and with the help of the Harrisonburg Fire Department it will contain many pieces of non– frightening real fire equipment. We want Alcoa and Kawneer to serve as an example of how a business can make a huge difference in the lives of children.
Thank you, The “A Dream Come True” Volunteers |

Thank You Rockingham Memorial Hospital Foundation The RMH Foundation has awarded the “A Dream Come True” Playground a grant in the amount of $5000. We appreciate the support the foundation has shown to our playground project and the children in our community. The grant funding will be used to purchase a shade sail to provided an area of shaded play on the playground. Some children need shade due to health conditions and a place out of the sun to cool down when they become overheated. The shade sail will provide protection from the harmful effects of the suns rays. Thank you so very much to the RMH Foundation!
