About Us

What does the “I Have A Dream” Foundation do?

The answer is, a lot. From first grade to first job, we empower youth in under-served communities by making a long-term commitment to their success. “I Have A Dream” provides after-school and summer programs, academic enrichment and support, and, where possible, wraparound supports to ease the systemic barriers to success faced by children and families in the neighborhoods we serve. In addition, all Dreamer Scholars who graduate from high school receive a guaranteed scholarship to apply toward the post-secondary pathway of their dreams.

The “I Have A Dream” approach has reached more than 20,000 Dreamer Scholars to date, improving communities and breaking the cycle of poverty for countless Dreamers and their families.
