Ms. Quinney's Wildest Dream
When elementary school physical education teacher Ms. Quinney wrote to The Oprah Winfrey Show with her wildest dream, we knew we couldn't do it alone. So we turned to a mouse for help.
Most of Ms. Quinney's students at Crockett Elementary don't get the chance to experience life outside of their inner city neighborhood in Houston.

"Just one day away to do something that they really, really like would help them to forget about all the sadness that's going on in their little lives," she says. "They're worried about problems that grown-ups have and kids shouldn't have to go through that. They should enjoy being young and carefree, but they're not."
