about the Dream A Dream (D.A.D.) Foundation

Don D. Wilson - Dream A Dream Foundation

The Dream A Dream (D.A.D.) Foundation is a Chicago-based, non-profit organization that was created to support, uplift and actualize the dreams of young people who may not have the resources to achieve their goals.

​

Named after and in honor of the late Don D. Wilson, who believed that nothing is impossible if you set your mind to it and put in the work.

​

A lifelong learner whose interest spanned the spectrum – from microbiology to world history to travel – Don designed a life from which he didn't need a vacation.

 

It is in this vein, D.A.D. is committed to giving back to underserved communities across the country.
