We have a suite at US Bank Arena through 2014. Our families love it for this very reason: “We had a great time at the Cyclones game last night. We got to meet two really nice families. It was so nice to see Ian have a good time and meet some great kids! Thanks Dragonfly!!!”

Each bag contains about $140 worth of items: night lights, laundry bag and detergent (HE Free/Clear Pods), toothbrush, toothpaste, in-room meal cards, personal care items, office supplies… all the needs …
From a Dragonfly Mom: “My bumper is being replaced from the wreck so when the guy told me the whole thing needed replacing, my first thing was “OH NO….what about all my Dragonfly bumper stickers”.

Unfortunately, the weather was terrible and the game was delayed. Gladly, our Dragonflies barely …
Reprinted from GreatNonprofits.com: http://greatnonprofits.org/reviews/the-dragonfly-foundation April 3, 2014 “When my son became a Dragonfly, we were 2 years into his treatment of chemotherapy and high dose steroids. He is still in treatment. I don’t think my family would have had the strength to keep going had the Dragonfly Foundation not swooped in and lifted us up with encouragement, distractions, and support. …
Our Dragonflies had a BLAST being a part of the Findlay Market Opening Day Parade for the Cincinnati Reds! This year, they had the opportunity to ride our Dragonfly Fire Truck (thanks to the Stonelick Township Fire Department!!), ride the Dragonfly Express (thanks to our friend Todd Stine!!) or to be a part of the Kings Island group promoting the …
