Dream Builders believes that equitable opportunitiesare the foundation for youth to realize their fullest potential. Ourmission is to provide at-risk youth1 with access to a diverse andbroad set of assets through mentorship, entrepreneurship,scholarship, and leadership training. Access to these assets willprovide these youth with the necessary skills to succeedacademically and professionally, and attain ownership in thedevelopment of low-income/highly distressed communities.Dream Builders uses an innovative model to provide at-risk youth with the opportunity to attain financial ownership in real estate located in low-income/highly distressed communities. This ownership will be earned by attending life/job skill courses and contributing to community development efforts. The youth will also be required to publish a book describing their experiences, how the program has benefited their present lives and assist them in the future, and how they plan to continue to provide support to underserved communities. The profits earned from the real estate and book sales will be allocated to their college tuition and/orother educational expenses through partnership with Dream Builders. Dream Builders will use their portion of profits for future real estate projects and community development (parks, playgrounds, community centers, churches, etc).
