Dreams for Veterans

 

Dreams for Veterans honors our veterans’ service by fulfilling their final Dreams, providing them, their families and caregivers inspiration, comfort and closure at the end of life.

Dream recipients are U.S. military veterans, active service members, and members of the Reserve and National Guard.

Dreams not only serve veterans, but also bring comfort and peace to their loved ones and caregivers. Dreams play a critical role in the special end-of-life care that focuses on improving quality of life for veterans and their families.

 

 

We have fulfilled veterans’ Dreams since our inception. Our Dreams for Veterans program officially launched in 2015 in Washington, D.C., attended by key members of congress.

 

 

The late Senator John McCain spoke to the importance of the Dreams for Veterans program soon after its official launch.

IF YOU SERVED, YOU CAN DREAM

Dream recipients live in the United States, including Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico, are U.S. military veterans ages 18 and older diagnosed with a life-limiting illness and a life expectancy of 12 months or less, can provide proof of U.S. military service* and lack the resources to fulfill the Dream themselves. If the applicant is currently serving on active duty, in the Reserve or National Guard, proof of service is required.

*If applicants are unable to provide a copy of their discharge papers or other proof of service or prefer not to share those forms, please feel free to apply for a Dream through our Dream Program.

We do not fulfill certain types of Dreams.
