DREAM MAKER SOCIETY

About Dream Makers

Avenues for Youth partners with youth experiencing homelessness to achieve their dreams. Our Dream Maker Society provides a lasting impact on the lives of youth and lays a financial foundation that ensures our work with youth continues. Dream Makers are a group of individuals who commit to give $2,000 or more over two years, or just $84 a month.
