What's New
 
 

Dream Leader Program : By bringing young people of all abilities, from every race, color, social status and religion and giving them the opportunity to see past any perceived differences thay might see in each other, gives them the opportunity to recognize and appreciate our common humanity.

 

Long before walls can be built, prejudices can be formed and isolation can result, we are creating opportunities which inspire youth to work together and to lead together.

 

Within the public and private sectors of local and world communities, Dream for Kids is working in schools and youth organizations in partnership with government and social agencies. We are bringing young people of all abilities together in small groups for the purpose of reinforcing the lessons learned from the classroom, building leadership skills and to serve the local and world communities.

 

 

Creating cooperative projects which serve the local and world community connect our youth to others in a way which encourages compassion for those who are both close to home and also a world apart from their daily lives.

 

 

While practicing skills such as organizing meetings, letter writing, public speaking, team building and different ability awareness, the Dream Leaders become active members of the community.

 

By reaching out to their peers in developing countries, Dream Leaders become involved in global issues and learn to become true citizens of the world.
