Give life to final Dreams with Dream Foundation

Dream Foundation gives life to final Dreams for terminally-ill adults and their families across the nation. From family vacations and reunions to requests for essential items, every Dream provides inspiration, comfort and closure when it’s most needed. And each Dream is made possible thanks to you and others like you. Sign up for payroll giving or organize a fundraiser at work and help make Dreams come true!

Support our veterans

Payroll Giving—regular gifts that add up to Dreams

Making a gift with automated payroll deductions is an easy way to support Dreams and gives you the tax benefits of charitable giving. We can help you set this up. If your employer uses the Benevity platform, look for Dream Foundation. You can make one-time gifts or set up regular payroll deductions direct through the platform!

MATCHING GIFTS

Many employers offer matched gift contributions, multiplying each gift you make up to a specified amount. Contact your Human Resources or Charitable Giving Department to learn more about your company’s program.

Organize a fundraiser with your colleagues

Recruit local restaurants for a dinner draw for donations, host a virtual gaming fundraiser or raffle off the use of executive parking spaces for six months. Any activity can be turned into a fundraiser for Dreams!

INSPIRE

Global healthcare marketing agency Harrison and Star raised funds for Dreams as part of parent company Omnicom’s Health Group’s 30-day interagency Fitbit challenge. Colleagues teamed up to support and embrace the same active, personal choices that they want their patients and physicians to encourage.

Harrison and Star’s Fitbit fundraising challenge gave its people a better understanding of their work.

UNITE

Marketing services agency Wiland, Inc, made Dream Foundation the recipient for one of their bi-annual “Have A Heart” campaigns, where 250 employees take part in a fundraising drive for a cause of their choice. Wiland, Inc. generously matched the funds raised from a Chili Cook-Off, a Beard Growing Contest and three pay periods where people designated donations to Dream Foundation, raising over $10,000—enough to fulfill around four Dreams!
