Receive Text UpdatesDante is a beautiful mix of deep empathy and pure, infectious joy. He has an incredibly compassionate heart and is always the first to offer a warm hug to a friend in need. But he also finds absolute delight in the simplest things. His laugh fills the room, like when he watches Toy Story and bursts into giggles every single time the Pixar lamp hops across the screen. He just naturally wants everyone around him to be as happy, smiling, and loved as he is.
What are Dante's favorite things to do?Dante is a perfect blend of outdoor energy and 80s soul. He loves playing outside with friends, kicking balls around, and zooming down slides. But he also shares a special bond with his dad, who passed down his favorite childhood nostalgia. Dante is obsessed with vintage G1 Transformers, especially Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, plus He-Man and Knight Rider. He loves circle time at school, watching Daniel Tiger, and enthusiastically acting out his favorite heroic stories.
What would your family do with $25,000?Winning would provide the seed money to launch Dante’s Dresser, a charity dream inspired by donating his outgrown clothes to children in need. We would use the rest to create an amazing shared play space for Dante and his baby sister Karlie, arriving this July, who we actually named after the G1 Transformers character! This prize would allow us to scale our charity vision while fueling their imaginations with playsets, ensuring Dante and Karlie grow up playing and giving back together.
