Dreams vary as much as the personalities of the children we serve. They may involve meeting a celebrity, a trip, a gift such as a computer or playground, or our most-requested dream, a week at the Give Kids the World Village, which enables a child to visit all of the Orlando-area theme parks. No dream has been refused, except those involving motorized vehicles and firearms. The Children’s Dream Fund is not affiliated with a national organization. We do not telemarket to raise funds. Since its inception in 1981, the Children’s Dream Fund has made dreams come true for over 3,000 children. According to our most recent audited financial report, 82% of all expenses go to make children’s dreams come true. Over 50% of all dream costs are covered by in-kind donations. All funds raised help children in our community. The Children’s Dream Fund strictly adheres to the Association of Fundraising Professional’s Donor Bill of Rights. Every child deserves hope and a dream and our goal is to continue to make those dreams come true.
