Making Dreams Come True Through CafeGive and The “I Have A Dream” Foundation

I think we can all agree that going to college is a good thing. But did you know that in the United States today, less than 15% of children from low-income families will get a bachelor’s degree, compared to 26% nationwide, and more than 50% in high-income communities? As a recent college graduate, I definitely fall into the 50% statistic here and while in college I also met those who were from the 15% mentioned above. This is where The “I Have A Dream” Foundation makes a difference.

With the vision that one day, all children in this nation will have the opportunity to pursue higher education and to fully capitalize on their talents, aspirations, and leadership, children will be empowered to have fulfilling careers and create a better world. “I Have Aa Dream” Foundation empowers children in low-income communities to achieve higher education. They do this by providing them with guaranteed tuition support while equipping them with the skills, knowledge, and habits they need to gain entry to higher education and succeed in college and beyond . While only 50% of students from low-income communities finish college, only one out of seven will graduate from college, but “I Have A Dream” Foundation sites have doubled (or tripled) the local high school graduation and college enrollment rates.

“I Have A Dream” Foundation is in the process of developing an ambitious new plan --, to significantly increase their impact on students and communities across the nation. With a goal of doubling the number of Dreamers at any given time, CafeGive is excited to help out our nation’s future teachers, social workers, secretaries, scholar-athletes, lawyers, etc.and more.
