Founded in 1999, Dream A Dream empowers children from
vulnerable backgrounds by developing life skills while at the same time
sensitizing the community through active volunteering leading to a
non-discriminatory society where unique differences are appreciated.
Dream A Dream provides children from vulnerable backgrounds
with non-traditional educational opportunities designed to allow them to
explore, innovate and build important life skills. These life skills are
fundamental to child/youth development and to the successful transition into
adulthood and becoming fully functioning and productive members of our society.
Dream A Dream programs allow children to develop:
· Interpersonal skills including teamwork, communications,
negotiation and coping skills
· Cognitive skills such as decision-making, problem solving and critical
thinking
· Creativity, confidence, self-awareness and a passion for learning
Ours is a dream that started with a dozen young dreamers
wanting to make a difference, but has developed into a professionally-run Public
Charitable Trust. Today, we empower over 2200 children referred from 9 NGO
partners, through an active and enthusiastic base of 1200+ volunteers in
Bangalore, participating with a professional and skilled Dream Team who work
under the guidance of a Strong, committed and dynamic Board. |
