The Roselle’s Dream Foundation and Artist Ron Burns have teamed up to help turn dreams into reality for blind children and adults. With your help, a piece of art can have the power to change a person’s life forever.
40% of the net proceeds from your order will help blind children and adults obtain the technology they need to not only excel in school and at work, but to live out their dreams. In return for your generous support, you will receive a fine art print of Roselle hand-signed by artist Ron Burns.
"On September 11, 2001 Roselle and I were in our office on the 78th floor of Tower One of the World Trade Center when the tower was struck by American Airlines flight 11 which had been hijacked and was being controlled by terrorists. Working as a team, Roselle led myself along with the others on our floor, down the darkened stairwell (that consisted of 1,463 steps) to safety moments before the building collapsed. She remained poised and calm through the entire day. She gave kisses and love wherever she could and she worked when she needed to do so. I would not be alive today if it weren’t for Roselle. I cannot say enough about the incredible job she did. What Roselle did on 9/11 is a testimony not only to the Stern’s and the others who raised her, but also to her trainer, Todd Jurek, the entire GDB training staff, and all the people who make up the wonderful organization of Guide Dogs for the Blind. Most of all, what Roselle did that day and in fact every day she and I were together is nothing less than the strongest possible evidence I can provide of the value of teamwork and trust."
