Our Mission:

Individuals Driven to Respect, Educate, Achieve, and Motivate [iDream] strive to improve the current state and level of violence in the GTA, secure a promising future for today’s youth and aid in the realization of their potential through the power of athletics, academics, and arts.

Our Strategic Priorities

• EDUCATION: Big Brother and Mentoring – The Big Brother and Mentoring program utilizes a positive support system for the young student's education, as well as a monitored growth of positive emotions and healthy physical activity. We propose to offer assistance in local communities by setting up homework clubs in which iDream members and volunteers would tutor children in a subject of their strength. During "recess" (following a 45-60 minute tutoring period), the young students will engage in monitored games and on other days, will be guided in creating fun and artistic pieces such as poems and paintings. At the end of the program, tournament days and art shows will take place to show the progress of the student's attitude alongside better learning habits in one's home school.

• Violence AWARENESS – iDream has begun using surveys and news coverage of violent acts around Toronto to base its promotional campaign. At the moment, we are developing a large map of Toronto that will pinpoint where the violence has occurred throughout our city, emphasizing that the violence has not simply occurred in one area, but is scattered throughout the GTA.

As iDream continues to grow, we would like to include the following as our priorities…

• SPORTS and Athletics – Sports programs can be quite costly and time consuming which is often discouraging. Instead of preventing many children from participating in these programs, iDream would like to introduce the idea of running inter-city house leagues within local communities involving basketball, soccer, and track and field.

• ARTS – Drama. Music. Visuals. Dance. We’d like to have more volunteers who possess skill in any of those areas to teach and mentor children. Eventually, we’d like to hold a talent show in which each community would be given the chance to showcase their talent. Followed by an art show, parents are able to view all the art pieces created by all the students of the program. Donations are welcome in support of this program, the shows, and the free pizza for those who entered::..
