Overview

Mission

Share the dream believes that everyone regardless of their financial situation, deserves to share a meal and companionship during the holiday season. Because many people may not be able to afford a gift for their child, have the means to provide a holiday meal, or have a support network with whom to enjoy a holiday meal, share the dream provides a free community meal and holiday celebration. Regardless of a person's ability to pay, share the dream invites everyone to come together as a community one day a year and share a meal together. This provides an opportunity to give back to the community. Additionally, 60 volunteers are needed to make this event successful. Therefore, by hosting community christmas share the dream encourages volunteerism and support for the less fortunate in the community.
