Giving Back
At Nightmare Nibbler, it is important to us to give something back to the community. We enjoy the intangible benefit of giving and feel that supporting a charitable organization not only helps them, but us as well!
We are thrilled to announce our support of the Canadian charity—Sleeping Children Around the World (SCAW). A portion of each Nightmare Nibbler sale will be donated to this very worthwhile cause.
WHAT IS SCAW?
Sleeping Children Around the World (SCAW) donations provide bedkits to children of any race and/or religion who will benefit the most; typically being located in underdeveloped and developing countries.
Each $35 donation (Canadian funds) provides a bedkit that consists of a mat or mattress, pillow, sheet, blanket, mosquito net (if applicable), clothes outfit, towel and school supplies. Bedkit contents vary from country to country depending upon local needs.
WHY BEDKITS?
During the Great Depression in the 1930’s, while travelling east from Manitoba looking for work, Murray Dryden endured many nights without food or a bed. He felt that “the comfort of a bed is a basic right of every child,” and that, “There is nothing more peaceful than a sleeping child.”
Murray and his wife, Margaret, went on to found Sleeping Children Around the World in 1970 and since then, SCAW has raised over $23 million to provide bedkits for children in 33 countries.
A SHARED DREAM…
SCAW’s dream for “A world in which every child benefits from the comfort of a good night’s sleep”, is one that we share. We feel this beautifully complements our vision of helping children to manage their nightmares so that they may have a peaceful and restful sleep.
