“WEEN DREAM is more than a costume giveaway — it’s a movement to make childhood magic accessible to everyone,” said Toni Shirley, Executive Director at WEEN DREAM. “When a child puts on a costume, they’re not just dressing up — they’re stepping into a world of creativity, self-confidence, and belonging. Our partners make that possible.”
