Spotlight on Impact
'J' is experiencing improved sleep at night with a mattress that offers better support for her physical needs.A Note From - 'J' June 2024
Dear Board of Directors,
Words aren't enough, so please accept my simple sketch. Sitting in a garden among growth and adaptation in symbiosis is my natural habitat. If I can't physically be there I just close my eyes - its magic!
Dreams are so important; awake or asleep. Your grant approval for a mattress will have a profound effect on my ability to dream, enjoy life, and work toward goals.
I am forever grateful. Thank you and bless all of you with health and peace. J
