As we enter the fall season and the prelude to the holidays, we can think about how we can rise. And one of the ways to do that is to lift the spirits and fortunes of someone else. "Book of Dreams," our annual charitable effort not only eases the pain of others and brings joy to those in the shadow of sorrow, but also helps us all find fulfillment in giving. Here is a chance to let us know who is in need so we can highlight requests for funds to make some holiday dreams come true.
