Dream Foundation - Santa Barbara, California

Dionne Fields

One wish, if you had only 7 days to live.
What would your one wish be?
The dream foundation and our coordinator Mrs. Shersy Benson went the extra mile in helping me and my two sons, put a smile on my mother’s face.
Because of the dream foundation, who gives hopes and dreams to hopeless families due to life threaten illness.
They have given me the strength to honor my mother through this novel called One Wish.
And now her future organization to help other women with uterine cancer all across America.
Mom mother taught me, to not just reach for the stars but become a star.
In Loving Memory of my mother,
Theresita Fields October 16 1948 – October 26, 2012.

An AMAZING organization! My sister was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer at a very young age. It was shocking. She had two wishes, to either see my 3 month old daughter and myself or to go to Disneyland with the family. The Dream Foundation made it possible for my daughter and I to join my sister and the rest of the family to go to Disneyland. It was a memorable experience and I will cherish it forever! Thank you Dream Foundation.

Mom had been sick about 12 years and within the last 5 developed dementia. She had always love Elvis so with the help of hospice and the Dream Foundation, she the king surprised her for her birthday this past August. Sadly, we lost momma December, 2021. It's helps to know how special her last birthday was to her. We can never thank y'all enough for everything. You will forever be in our hearts.

My daughter was diagnosed with Cancer 9/2016 and her wish was to take her 3 small children to Disneyland for the first time, they offered Hotel, tickets for 2 days and money for either transport or food. well every time that date came to go she was in the hospital . she passed away 9/17 and wasn't able to ever take the kids, so I asked if I could and they said yes , but the hotel and the money were no longer available to me since she had passed, well by then we only had 3 months in which to go by now the Holidays were creeping up and there were few days that we could go, but it would require for the kids to miss school and they were struggling with the loss of their mother, when we scheduled to go, Disneyland was closed down because of a break out of legionnaires disease, so now most of the month was blocked out and we couldn't go, so now at the beginning of the new year I am told the tickets were no longer available and I would have to purchase. very disappointing as a single grandmother with 3 children to raise and now to have to tell them they cant go now. I thought someone already paid for this as my daughters last wish. I guess not that she is gone it doesn't matter.

We contribute to this foundation each month. The staff there are wonderful and committed. Lots of activities administered for the Santa Barbara community through this very caring organization.

Very easy application and process. This is the only adult (make a wish style) organization of its kind in the USA for adults!
