"The service we render others is the rent we pay for our room on earth."

~ Sir Wilfred Grenfell

There is nothing more important to us then those who give their time and talents to ensure that the mission of Dreams for Kids is fulfilled.

Dreams for Kids has always been, and will always be, a grassroots organization, rooted in the community, and sustained by passionate people with a burning desire to make a difference in our time.

Never has this been more true than for those who serve on our Dream Team. These talented individuals give freely of thier time and provide us with the critical legal and financial oversight necessary for our continued expansion across the world.

Overseeing all of our programs and various activities, the members of our Board of Directors work with our staff to ensure the advancements of our global mission to empower a generation of young leaders who work to end the isolation and suffering of children, provide life changing opportunities, and to truly change the world.
