Programs

2 programs

Collegiate Dream Teams - Groups of student leaders that are passionate about helping others in their community work alongside Dream On 3 to plan, market, fundraise, and ultimately fulfill the Dream Experience of an individual living with a life-altering medical condition. Teams consist of 15-20 students from each college. CDT members gain a wealth of real-world career and hands-on experience such as leadership development, team building, and community engagement all while helping someone in their community. The program develops work-related skills such as marketing, branding, public relations, social media, fundraising, donor relations, non-profit management, event planning, and more. We have worked with hundreds of students that have served on 43 CDT teams across various college campuses.

Expenses: $737K

DreamBoxes - The DreamBox program matches community sponsors with children that are confined to their home or hospital rooms. Dream On 3 partners with children's hospitals for referrals of patients that would benefit from an over-the-top, VIP DreamBox. The items in the box are specifically tailored to the interests of the child based on an application process completed by the family. Boxes are delivered directly to the recipient's home or hospital room, bringing a much-needed smile to a young dreamer. We have created and delivered more than 275 DreamBoxes across our communities.
