Cameron’s Wish for a Safe Outdoor Space

Due to his highly compromised immune system, 7-year-old Cameron has been limited in his social interactions. “Cameron wished for a safe outdoor space so he can play with his friends again, feel normal. It’ll give our family a sense of relief,” said his mom, Joy.
It takes a village to make wishes like Cameron's come true. Huge thanks to Cornerstone General Contractors, Inc., who jumped in on Cameron's wish, even supplying custom construction gear for Cameron to be the ultimate project manager. Special thanks to North River Concrete & Pumping LLC, CALPORTLAND Company, and LaRusso Concrete Inc. - for donations of labor, equipment, and materials to fulfill Cameron’s dream. Heartfelt thanks to Red Robin, Costco, and Yardistry for generously contributing to Cameron’s wish day.
