Mission

D.R.E.A.M. (Developing Responsible Economically Advanced Model-Citizens) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing financial education and advocacy to underrepresented, urban youth. Founded in 2009 by Jaleni Thompson and Femi Faoye, D.R.E.A.M. engages students through hands-on education designed to foster understanding of personal finance and investment, ultimately aiming to reduce the wealth gap between low-income urban citizens and the broader American population.
