Our Mission

 

DreamCatchers Foundation develops youth to be compassionate, entrepreneurial leaders in their communities by fostering intergenerational connections between students and older adults. These connections are created through acts of service, including fulfilling end-of-life Dreams for hospice patients.

We have student chapters in high schools and colleges around the world, who partner with hospices to fulfill Dreams for older adults.

The Power of Intergenerational Connection

“Connections between generations are essential for the mental health and stability of a nation.”
– Margaret Mead

In past times, older and younger generations were intertwined naturally. Today, this is less so.

At DreamCatchers, we build bridges to connect generations. For some youth involved, interactions with hospice Dreamers are one of the few connections they have to an older generation. These interactions give them insight and wisdom that impacts the rest of their lives. 

By providing both young and old the opportunity to connect in a unique way, each is transformed in powerful ways. Research has also shown that there are massive mental and physical health benefits to intergenerational interaction.
