Meyer Homes - Dream Home

Dream Home

Craig Meyer became a Big Brother in 1987 and has ever since cherished his friendship with his Little Brother. While assisting his "Little" with the daunting task of finding a prep school scholarship in the early 1990's, Craig recognized an opportunity for Big Brothers/Big Sisters to assist "Bigs" with the advanced educational needs of their Littles. In more recent years, Craig also saw building a designer show house as an opportunity to help the organization in a way other than being a Big. When Craig recently learned that Big Brothers of Massachusetts Bay has independently created an Educational Advocacy and Scholarship Program to assist Littles to achieve their educational goals, he realized the time was right to use his business success to support this new program.

Dream House 2002 is the culmination of that vision. Dream House 2002 was a collaborative effort with Big Brothers of Massachusetts Bay and Big Brothers/Big Sisters of South Middlesex which offered tours of an 8,000 square foot estate home. Each room of the residence was decorated and merchandised by some of the finest interior designers and artists in New England.

During the Open House in the Fall of 2002, more than 2,000 visitors toured this one-of-a-kind home. The event resulted in a donation to these two non-profit organizations of more than $45,000, part of which went to the Educational Advocacy and Scholarship Program.
