Dream Journal

Dear Friends,

I am honored to introduce myself to you. As the new executive director at Dream in Green I look forward to working with teachers and schools, meeting with donors and sponsors, and collaborating with local partners.

We have completed another successful program year of the Dream in Green Academy. We want to congratulate our winning schools for the hard work they did through activities that support our mission. Thank you to our donors and sponsors for supporting our twelfth year. Prizes this year included a cruise, movie tickets, Whole Foods gift certificates, and even a vertical garden for winning schools.

Sincerely,

Barbara Martinez-Guerrero

Dream in Green is proud to announce that we will continue to partner with Deedly for next year's Dream in Green Academy.

Deedly's mission is to use education to empower youth to be the change we want to see in this world. Through their specific program they educate students about world issues and the charities that strive to fix them. In doing so they will receive the knowledge and power needed to make conscious, philanthropic, and eventually world changing decisions.
