Founded in 2020, Dreams of Hope is a grassroots non profit organization that serves Venezuela's most vulnerable - the children.
Born out of necessity, our initiative was simple: help those affected by the most devastated social and economical crisis in Venezuela's history. It was clear, our presence proved to be a staple in the community.
From there, our hearts were set ablaze. We knew we needed to do more for our people in Maracaibo, Venezuela. In the short time of our organization, we are working to close the food gap in the region, provide clothing for children to attend school in confidence, equip little learners with school supplies, and provided a host of other necessities and relief.
What we have accomplished thus, far is the direct result of our dedicated and diligent team of volunteers and made possible because of generous donors, like yourselves, that help us meet the need.

"Hope is beautiful when there is
something real attached to it. Our children need more than hope, they need to see what is possible. Because
of our donors, there is more
possibility available to them."
"There is always something that can
be done to make a difference in the
life of children living in poverty. Volunteerism, donations, fundraising
are all equal parts of a whole, working together to lift someone out
of their misfortune.

the feelings of another, here are
children dealing with hunger,
poverty, and desperation in my
country of Venezuela. It’s our job to
support, inform, and advocate, this is
why I volunteer.”
“Having the opportunity to serve these children is a way to be closer to my roots, to remember where I came from, and to make sure I'm doing my part to help built a better country for
the generations to come .”

those in need, special in my home city, Now with Dreams of Hope I can
do more, I can reach more people
and together we can make a big difference not only for the children
but for their communities.”

compassion and charity work together to help those less fortunate.
We all can do something a better
world, we just have to give back
what's in our hearts."

my hope to one day combine my love of volunteering and traveling to
impact lives globally."
"My mission with Dreams of Hope is
to empower all those little girls and help them grow to be great leaders.
I want them to know that the are
capable of changing their
communities, their city and even
their country is they want to. The biggest challenge is giving them an
education to become strong,
independent and successful
women."
"I know that I'm making a difference when I see the smiles on their faces.
These children are silent victims of
the crisis in their country. A crisis the don't even understand. I want to be their voice, I want people to know that this is happening close to us, on
this side of the planet"

are doing something good, that we
are really changing something, it gives me hope. It helps me feel that we can work for a better world. And
that feels good"

Venezuela, but seeing the passion
and hard work of the founders it's
inspiring. My goal is to help the,
make genuine changes in these
children's lives."
"The children in Venezuela are just as
bright, capable, and deserving of
love, security, and an adequate
education. I always wanted to do something to help the children of my country but didn't know how to do it, until the day I learned about Dreams of Hope. This is the opportunity I was waiting for"
