financial transparency
At Dream Factory, financial transparency and mission-driven spending are central to everything we do. We’re proud that 96.1% of every dollar donated directly supports dream fulfillment for critically and chronically ill children.
This level of efficiency is possible because all of our local chapters — including Dream Factory Idaho — are powered entirely by volunteers. Across the U.S., these dedicated teams have helped grant thousands of dreams since our founding in 1980. The Dream Factory operates with just four paid staff members, all based at our National Headquarters in Louisville, Kentucky.
Why It Matters
Because of our low overhead, donors can feel confident knowing that their support goes directly toward wish granting for kids, not administrative costs.
