My daughter Lizette was a Dream Academy student from 2013 to 2016. During those years I saw a significant change in her attitude toward serving others and I witnessed how she came to believe that she could accomplish anything in life that she wanted to. She’s learned to work hard through the fundraising and community service she did with the Academy. She also became more outspoken and empowered through the speakers, team leaders, and trips she took to the various colleges locally and on the East Coast. As a parent, I’ve helped in various activities and have also seen the great change in all the Dream Academy students. I truly believe that we as parents must go out of our way to help our children grow and to design a better future for themselves and our community. Thank you, Dream Academy!
