Dream Ride Experience Mission Statement
Our mission is clear: Using Special Olympics as our cause, raise the awareness and much-needed funds for people living with intellectual disabilities while inspiring our communities to overcome diversity, with all the achievements and accomplishments of Special Olympics athletes’ serving as an example.
Founded in 2001, "Dream Ride" started as just that--a dream from Michael A. Bozzuto, CEO of Bozzuto’s Inc. It began as an optimistic vision to help people with intellectual disabilities living in our communities. Thirteen years later--thanks to the passion, hope and dedication of his entire company and the community--"The Dream Ride Experience" has evolved into the largest philanthropic endeavor sponsored by Bozzuto’s Inc. and
The Hometown Foundation, Inc.
The Dream Ride Experience is a culmination of years’ worth of fundraising events, activities and outreach. It is an event to celebrate the achievements of Special Olympics athletes and to honor these outstanding men, women and children living with intellectual disabilities in our communities.
Spanning twelve states along the Eastern Seaboard and three countries, "The Dream Ride Experience" has become one of the most exciting and highly anticipated events for engine enthusiasts, Special Olympians and passionate participants. Currently, over $2,245,000 has been raised for Special Olympics programs in multiple states, with over 100% of the proceeds directly benefiting the charity.
