About

Dreams for Kids empowers at-risk youth and those with disabilities through dynamic leadership programs and life-changing activities that inspire them to fearlessly pursue their dreams and compassionately change the world.

Our purpose is to unite children of disability, race, religion, and socio-economic background and inspire them to realize their full potential and serve as active members of their communities and citizens of the world.

At the core of our programming is the empowerment of youth who live in poverty and those with disabilities through a social enterprise based service learning and leadership after school curriculum. The heart of the approach is reminding each young person they have something to give, and then giving them opportunities to make a difference in the lives of others.

Our vision is to break down the barriers of segregation, embrace the abilities and potential of an isolated population, and empower them by their paying it forward in such a way which changes their communities and transforms their lives.
