Description
The mission of Dream Big! is to provide low-income and homeless girls with the basic items necessary to enable them to participate in sports and physical activity helping to lay the foundation for healthy, active lifestyles and quality learning experiences.
The organization has three primary goals:
1. Ensure that all girls, regardless of socio-economic background, have the equipment, program fees, training expenses and supplies that they need to participate in physical activities that contribute to their overall health, fitness, and well-being.
2. Combat the risk of obesity-related medical issues by promoting healthy, active lifestyles for young girls and teens.
3. Create opportunities for girls to develop social connections with peers and mentors; maintain healthy, active lives; assume leadership roles; and grow physically, emotionally, and socially through sports and physical activities.
