1,000 Dreams Fund has been fueling the dreams of talented women in need in the U.S. and across the world for more than EIGHT years now!

As we reflect on this year and look ahead to next year, we’re excited to keep the good — and the giving — going! We’re asking you to help us continue making dreams come true in 2025 by making a donation to our year-end ‘1,000 Dreams To 1,000 Realities’ campaign.

This all-important fundraiser is critical for supporting so many bright, talented young women who are unable to take the next step toward their dreams due to financial limitations, lack of mentorship and guidance, and other missed opportunities. 

We want to break down the  barriers of these limitations for our next generation of women leaders. 

There are SO MANY young women with dreams we need more of your support to make a reality. In 2024 alone our 1,000 Dreams Scholarship Fund received OVER THREE THOUSAND APPLICATIONS. In fact, your generosity can help fuel more unfunded dreams like those of Abigail and Madelynn.

“I wish to bring the same comfort I have in the arts to others. My professional career dream is to become an art therapist. With a scholarship, I can take one step closer to reaching this goal of helping others like me.” -Abigail

“My career goal in life is to become a marine ecologist, studying the ecology of marine ecosystems all over the world. The ability to get my basic scuba diving license would help me explore and study such environments, which can help me with research, future careers and job opportunities, and my dreams to explore all seven oceans. Because the expenses of school and other living costs have taken most of my savings, receiving a scholarship that helps me with the extra expenses of gaining more skills and knowledge would be greatly appreciated and much needed.” -Madelynn

There are thousands of stories from girls just like Abigail and Madelynn — young women who have applied for funding from 1,000 Dreams Fund. Strong, capable, smart, and ready to take on the world, they just need a little help to make that happen.

By supporting our ‘1,000 Dreams to 1,000 Realities’ fundraiser, you have the opportunity to make a profound difference in the lives of those whose dreams have been left unfulfilled this year. You have the power to give the gift of a dream. 

PLUS — with every donation gifted during this fundraiser, your contribution will be matched up to $2,000. Thanks to Board Member Lauren Bell, who chose the gift of a dream, together you can make double the impact!

You are supporting women who are intently pursuing career goals that will not only enhance their lives, but those of everyone around them. Your support is not just a donation; it is an investment in dreams we see become realities. Together, we create a world where every girl’s dream is within reach.

Let’s empower the next generation — together.
