Out of respect for the people who donate funds and goods, and for the staff who spend time and energy acquiring funds and goods, we have pledged to follow this  Gear and Money Policy.
Outside help allows our program to grow and thrive; we can't thank our donors and sponsors enough for their continuing support -- to see who these wonderful people are, please visit our donor thank you page. Also, if you want specifics on how our money is used, please visit our financial information page.
There are also ways to support DREAM other than financial involvement!
