At Dreams Come True, magic happens daily.
Dreams come in all shapes and sizes; some children ask for a trip to Disney World, a cruise, or the opportunity to meet a celebrity. For others, the dream is seeing snow or snuggling with their puppy.
Whatever the dream may be, the momentary reprieve from doctor visits, tests, and medical treatments makes all the difference.
As the First Coast’s only locally-based organization dedicated to making dreams come true, we proudly say that we have never turned away an eligible dreamer and never will.
We can do this because of the generosity of our donors, business partners, program sponsors, and the support of our Board of Directors. We are not affiliated with any national wish-granting charity, and 100% of all donations go toward fulfilling dreams unless otherwise directed by the donor.
In 2024, Dreams Come True will be celebrating its 40th anniversary. Dreams Come True has planned various events and activities to mark this significant milestone and make it memorable for the community.

Help us bring some ghoulish fun to our Dreamers and their families!
Join us for our Annual Trunk-or-Treat celebration, where we welcome about 250 kids and their families for a safe and fun way to trick-or-treat. Dream families get to drive through our Trunk-or-Treat maze, holding nets outside their cars to receive the perfect treats from our community partners.
You can donate candy and non-candy items to help ensure that we have plenty of treats for our little trick-or-treaters. Visit our Amazon Candy List link below.
If you are interested in signing up a trunk or volunteering for the event, please email us at info@dreamscometrue.org
Impact of Dreams Come True
Since 1984, Dreams Come True has been using the power of a dream to bring hope and joy to First Coast children battling life-threatening illnesses. The power of Dreams Come True does not just stop at the dream, but also includes many special “Moments in Between”, created from the time a child is referred and throughout their medical journey.
