We believe, regardless of economic, social class, or race, life for all can and should be filled with equitable opportunities. We believe a stronger community begins with our youth. We believe in putting students first. For 30 years, the "I Have A Dream" Foundation has provided individualized social, emotional, and academic support to young people from underserved communities in Boulder County, from 1st grade through college, along with a post-secondary tuition assistance scholarship. Thank you Boulder County for your continued support!
