Class is officially back in session! 

At 1,000 Dreams Fund, we always love this time of year because it kickstarts another season of making dreams come true.

The young women we fund with life-changing micro-grants, inspire through mentorship, and uplift through hands-on learning opportunities are moving Full Dream Ahead — and we are ready to support them! 

But to unleash this awesome potential, we need YOUR help!

We have launched our Full Dream Ahead (#FullDreamAhead) fundraiser this fall, and are asking you to help ensure that big expenses don’t stand in the way of their big dreams with YOUR DONATION TODAY!

When you give to 1,000 Dreams Fund, you are joining an active community of supporters that are making a difference in the lives of our recipients while helping them achieve their biggest dreams. 

Here are just a few of the young women whose lives have been positively impacted as a result of 1,000 Dreams Funds — and our network of supporters.

“My professional dream is to become a pediatrician. After completing my undergraduate years at Duke University, I plan to apply and go to medical school to achieve this dream. [The grant from 1,000 Dreams Fund] will help me afford the resources I’ll need to prepare and guide me through my undergraduate years”

–Jaqueline, Class of 2022 recipient from the 1,000 Dreams Scholarship Fund

“I am incredibly blessed and thankful to be selected [for Girls on the Rise]. This opportunity means the world to me and makes me very excited for my future… Girls on the Rise is such a great wonderful program and really assists girls in taking the first couple of steps toward such a big journey in their life…I am incredibly thankful for the opportunity to visit my dream universities. Observing student life and getting a glimpse of what to look forward to and expect offers hope and excitement for my future ahead.”

–M’racle, Project: Girls on the Rise grant recipient

“[The 1,000 Dreams Fund] scholarship allows me to focus on my academic studies without having to worry about financial barriers. It alleviates my family’s burdens to afford a college education and helps me to access opportunities that I wouldn’t have otherwise. My setbacks are often opportunities to help me grow stronger and I have my parents to thank for this positive attitude. Now, I am able to support them and other immigrant families to navigate unfamiliarity and move through their shared struggles.”

–Alice, Class of 2022 recipient from the 1,000 Dreams Scholarship Fund

We are so inspired to see Jaqueline, M’racle, Alice, and so many more move Full Dream Ahead!
