Days and Ways We host four annual community events: “Back 2 School Bash”: we provide 1,500 backpacks filled with school supplies to underprivileged children. Thanksgiving: we provide 1,300 turkeys and food boxes to the less fortunate. “The Joy of Christmas”: a Broadway-style Christmas pageant and toy giveaway. Bike and Toy Giveaway: we provide 3,500 bikes and 15,000 toys to underprivileged children the weekend before Christmas. Designated financial gifts for these events are always appreciated. Your support helps the Dream Center carry out its mission to make an impact on those individuals and families facing issues of poverty, homelessness and hopelessness. Your company benefits from high-profile association with the event and exposure before, during, and after the events. Corporations can underwrite an event. Corporations can also host a drive to help provide the practical needs such as canned goods, clothing, or toys. Sponsorships vary with each event and often can be tailored to meet the sponsor’s needs. For detailed sponsorship information for each event, contact: Ida Somero at 213.273.7148 or isomero@dreamcenter.org.
