We are the Dream Project
The Dream Project empowers students whose immigration status creates barriers to higher education. We start our program in high school and continue through college graduation into professional life. Students are supported through a strong network of mentoring, scholarships, and family engagement. Our start-up nonprofit has created an intentionally inclusive community where students are encouraged to use education as a vehicle to pursue their dreams and achieve their fullest potential.

Community Engagement
Higher education is most powerful when paired with a strong sense of community. We instill these values into our students and supporters so that our work transforms into bigger change.
Who
Support the Dream Project
When the Dream Project began, undocumented students struggled to find support and funding to pursue a college education. Thanks to the generous donations of community members, the Dream Project has empowered hundreds of students and families to overcome the barriers they face because of their immigration status.
When I received the Dream Project Scholarship I sat in silence for a good 20 minutes. I couldn’t believe it… I felt as if it was a sign from the universe that I would make it through.
