Dream Foundation
A 501(c)(3) non profit organization proudly dedicated to serving the foster youth
of Los Angeles, California.
Our organization was created from a simple belief: foster care should never mean loss of hope, support or opportunity. We believe every young person deserves the opportunity to build a strong foundation for their future.
Our organization was created to help youth navigate the challenges they face by connecting them with caring mentors, essential resources, educational support, enrichment opportunities and meaningful community connections. We understand that every young person’s journey is different, so we strive to meet each individual with compassion, encouragement and respect.
Through our programs and partnerships, we help youth build confidence, develop life skills, explore their interests, and recognize their own strengths. We are committed to creating a consistent support system where children and young adults can feel a sense of belonging and know they do not have to face life’s challenges alone. We help them reach their potential and pursue their dreams, regardless of their circumstances. By providing guidance, opportunity and connection.
Finding a safe place to live, securing employment, continuing education, accessing transportation, managing finances and simply navigating life independently can feel overwhelming.
Through compassion, stability, empowerment, and opportunity, we strive to create a place where young adults feel seen, supported and capable of creating a future they can be proud of. Because every young person deserves more than a place to stay. They deserve a place to belong, a chance to thrive and the support to build a life of their own!
