Sueños 2020, The DREAM Project’s 8th Annual Benefit, served as one of New York City’s premier events that celebrated Dominican Independence. Celebrities, educators and some of New York’s most prominent philanthropists gathered to help the organization fund and collect resources to expand their educational programs, impacting more than 27 disadvantaged communities and helping close the cycle of poverty in the Dominican Republic.

The 7th Annual Sueños 2019 Benefit continued what has now become a NYC tradition, raising awareness and funds for high-quality education for more than 9,000 Dominican youth. Sueños 2019 took place on Thursday, February 28, 2019 at The Mezzanine on Wall Street, celebrating Dominican Independence Day, Dominican American culture and education opportunities for all.

The My Very Own Library DREAM Book Fairs offer more than 2,000 students in the Dominican Republic the opportunity to select 10 new books in Spanish over the course of the school year. The book fairs include motivational literacy activities and inspiring special guests that generate excitement for reading, helping parents’ better support reading in the home.
