It's time for our Back-to-School Shop!
Back-to-school can be a stressful time when a family is supporting a child with a life-threatening medical condition. Time, energy, and finances are often stretched thin. We invite you to volunteer with us for one of Dreams Come True's Special Times, the School Supply Shop.
Some of our dream families will be coming into the office to "shop" for backpacks and school supplies. We need your assistance with greeting families, helping them find the right supply list for their school(s), gathering the correct items, and restocking the supplies as they run low.
Please note: We are unable to have unsupervised children at the office. This volunteer opportunity is for ages 16 & up.
If you are unable to volunteer but would still like to help, you are welcome to purchase school/classroom supplies and drop them off or have them sent to the DCT office to arrive by Friday, July 26. (Please no spiral notebooks, small boxes of crayons, or composition books, as we have plenty already.)

Dreams Come True is the northeast Florida's only locally-based, dream granting organization dedicated to using the power of a dream to bring hope and joy to EVERY First Coast child battling a life-threatening illness.
Since 1984, Dreams Come True has fulfilled the dreams of more than 4,300 children in northeast Florida. For some children, a dream can be a special trip to Disney World or a shopping spree in New York City, but it can also be something as simple as a new furry friend. Dreams bring hope and light to families facing some of their darkest days, and can give these amazing children the strength to defy the odds. Dreams Come True has never denied any eligible child a dream due to financial shortfalls and no eligible child is ever placed on a waiting list. Unless otherwise designated, 100% of all donations go directly toward dream fulfillment.
