FHS Special Spaces - Changing Lives One Bedroom at a Time

Throughout the next couple months, FHS is partnering with Special Spaces to transform two bedrooms for two different Palatine children. Our community outreach program is dedicated to making a difference in our community. This charge is one that we feel very passionate about, one that will provide new experiences for our students, and one that we hope can bring happiness to our community members. CLICK HERE TO SEE THE MAGIC!

From Special Spaces:

We create dream bedroom makeovers for dependent children ages 2-19 with cancer who are within one year of treatment. We only do bedrooms. Bedrooms where children sleep, but also rest, play, and spend time away from the challenges of their illness— a very special space to just to be a kid! We maintain a high touch, high impact organization that measures success by the quantity and the quality of the experience. We transform the child’s existing bedroom into a place that only he/she can dream or imagine.

We are excited to be working with Special Spaces and the families associated with this project. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.

Go Vikes!

Special Spaces is a nonprofit organization that creates dream bedroom makeovers for children with cancer.  This national organization was started by one mom doing one room in Knoxville, TN. As the passion for the mission evolved, her grassroots team grew. Special Spaces now spans across 14 states with over 50 volunteer directors who have helped create over 1,300 dream bedroom makeovers.  200 or those dream bedrooms were right here in Illinois.  

With the child as the main designer and Pinterest board in tow, we design, plan and create their unique space.  Your generosity makes their wildest dreams come true… a Star Wars room, Lego room, princess room, we can do that.     Your donations help them spend time not thinking about their next chemo, or their stem cell transplant or their next 8 days in the hospital, but to dream of their new bedroom lovingly built and tailor made just for them. And we make that all happen in just one day.  Changing children’s Lives - One Child.  One room.  One Day at a time. Click here to see how our bedroom makeovers impact the lives of the families we work with.

FHS will be sponsoring two rooms for two different children living in the Palatine area. With the money we raise, FHS will have two teams, Team Jeremias (3 yrs. old) and Team Angel (8 yrs. old), working on November 6th to makeover two different bedrooms. Please help us bring Jeremias and Angel's bedroom dreams to reality.

Any money raised above our initial goal, will be applied to our next bedroom remodel in the Spring.

Special Spaces is an Amazing organization! Lily’s youngest brother Owen was diagnosed with Leukemia when he was a year and a half old. He went through a 4 year battle and is doing great now. During his fight we were so lucky to have Special Spaces support us and makeover his room. It was truly overwhelming to see his new space outfitted with a superhero theme because that’s what he was to all of us.
