Step 1: Craft Your Story


Background

Dreams for Veterans provides terminally-ill U.S. military veterans, active service members, and members of the Reserve and National Guard with Dreams that provide joy, comfort and closure at the end of life.

Sample text

I want to run the 2025 Berlin Marathon to raise funds for Dream Foundation’s Dreams for Veterans. It’s the ultimate challenge for the ultimate cause! Please help me hit my fundraising target and make the final Dreams of terminally-ill veterans come true!

Our language

We are Dream Foundation, not The Dream Foundation.

We fulfill Dreams, not dreams.

We serve Dream recipients, not Dreamers.

US Army Veteran Darrell

U.S. Army Veteran Darrell

Darrell served in the U.S. Army. When he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, he dreamed of taking his wife and son to Puerto Rico for one final family vacation, but he couldn’t do it alone. Dream Foundation’s Dreams for Veterans program helped make his dream come true.

Darrell shared, “Through your generosity, my family has had the weight of my disease lightened, and our faith bolstered … Most importantly, I see the impact that small kindnesses can have, and that lesson is worth more than I can say.”

Berlin Marathon I’m Running

I’m running the 2025 BMW Berlin Marathon! This year, I’m not just running for a medal — I’m running for meaning. I’ve joined the Dream Challenge Team to raise funds for Dreams for Veterans, a program that honors terminally ill veterans by fulfilling their final Dreams.

Help me cross the finish line and bring comfort, closure, and joy to those who’ve served. 🇺🇸❤️
