Grace Lee's Company Details
Dream Volunteers and The Young Dreamer Network exists to empower volunteers to become difference makers in their communities both locally and globally. We see a day when we're running volunteer trips to dozens of locations around the world. We envision the towns we sponsor becoming self-sustaining, thriving communities no longer in need of our support. We offer volunteer based programs in Costa Rica, Guatemala, India and Ghana with plans to expand to other countries and communities in need. We also empower teens in local communities through The Young Dreamer Network program which now operates in Guatemala, India, Ghana, Costa Rica and the US. It involves the following: identifying emerging high schoolers with the potential to become difference makers in their community; granting scholarships to those young people to attend top secondary schools; assisting the mothers, grandmothers and aunts of our Young Dreamers through women's empowerment programs; sponsoring teacher salaries at the local elementary schools; bringing volunteers to perform school improvement projects to strengthen and beautify the physical structure of the elementary school; and engaging in sustainable development projects with the communities of our Young Dreamers.
