Description
Capture the Dream, Inc., is a registered California nonprofit dedicated to helping underserved and at-risk individuals succeed at school and find fulfilling, sustaining careers.
Thousands of Bay Area school children are forced to drop out each year due to financial hardship and neglect. We foster hope, love, and support to youth at critical time periods to empower them to overcome adversity and achieve their dreams. Our outreach program delivers financial aid to low-income families, single-parent homes, foster children, and children recovering from traumas. We support youth development and leadership advancement through mentoring, education, arts, and cultural programs. And our special events celebrate the community of dreamers we're building, one dream at a time.
Our organization believes that anyone can be a philanthropist. We build future leaders through planning and organizing events together and making dreams reality.
Capture the Dream, Inc. has been recognized on the Oakland Tribune, Wild 94.9 FM "Voices" with Angel Garcia, Energy 92.7 and AT&T Community Spotlight Hero Award, and Maybelline and PEOPLE magazine's "Empowerment through Education" award.
