From DREAMs to Reality: 30 Years of Impact

For three decades, the Dominican Republic Education and Mentoring (DREAM) Project has transformed the lives of thousands of children, youth, and families through innovative education programs. What began in 1995 with a single trip led by founder Michel Zaleski has grown into one of the Dominican Republic’s most impactful NGOs, recognized globally for excellence in literacy, early childhood education, and youth empowerment.

Today, DREAM operates in 15 communities, serving more than 7,000 students annually while championing equity, opportunity, and sustainable change. As we celebrate our 30th Anniversary Gala, this auction invites you to join our mission. Your participation fuels access to high-quality education, supports local leaders, and empowers young people to dream boldly and build brighter futures.
