This year, we’ve asked our community to share what Desert Bus for Hope and Child’s Play means to them, and what impact they’ve had on their lives. Here is a selection of these community submissions…

#DBToMe is a week where there's always somebody awake. It's the streaming equivalent of being a little kid and knowing that mom and dad are just down the hall if you need them. Thanks @DesertBus and crew. You're my light in the hallway. 💙🌵

And last but CERTAINLY not least: Desert Bus brought @Alatriyana and I together. I wouldn't have my incredible wife in my life without Desert Bus 8 introducing us from across the ends of the internet. She's the best thing that's ever happened to me. #DBtoMe 5/5

To my mind, @DesertBus is one of the few unequivocal forces of good in the world. I've been watching for 10 years now; and I've seen such incredible kindness as people come together to support an amazing cause. No matter how hard life is, the bus is safe and happy. ❤️ #DBToMe

#DBTOME I got into @DesertBus in ‘17, I was in a bad place & having quite a bad time mentally. DB’s wackiness, positivity & kindness helped me see light to improve my life personally & professionally. Now is one of my favourite events of the year & have contributed to ever since.

This year is my tenth year of watching @DesertBus, half of which have run during my birthday.

I’m glad that, during this year of uncertainty, I can once again see my birthday in with Desert Bus.

As is tradition. #DBToMe

We want to hear your story! You can tweet using the #DBToMe hashtag throughout the rest of this year’s run. We’ll be retweeting submissions throughout the run on the @desertbus Twitter feed and highlighting a selection of tweets from the community here on the desertbus.org blog.

As always, thanks for being a part of our community and your support of Child’s Play!
