Empowering Women And Children To Rise Above Adversity And Realize Their Dreams

Where are They Now?

Updates From Former Dream On Graduates

Dream On students are back to school and engaged in a variety of programs. Six students have completed their coursework this past June—one has graduated, two will graduate in the Fall, and three are working on their theses and are expected to graduate in the spring of 2026.
When even one child in a family is educated, the entire family can be lifted out of extreme poverty. As part of our prevention program, Dream On has been strengthening families and keeping them together for the last eighteen years through educational sponsorship. As part of Dream On’s rescue program, holistic rehabilitative care has given children an opportunity to heal and rebuild their lives. While we cannot share every story, the following are some wonderful updates from beneficiaries of our sponsorship program.

After earning my Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication and Journalism from BlueCrest College, my life’s mission has centered around advocacy and storytelling—amplifying the voices of those in need.

Driven by this passion, I founded “Akosombo Girl,” a platform on Instagram and Tiktok where I use my journalism skills to highlight the struggles within my community and build awareness through social media. This initiative has grown into a powerful support system that connects those in need with people who care.

I also launched the SUUKUVI Project Initiative, which is dedicated to improving the lives of school children in rural areas by providing essential items such as uniforms, shoes, books, and supplies to keep children in school.

Through collaborations with organizations like FIFIAWOTO Foundation, Dream On, the Warrior King Watches, and my incredible social media community, we’ve been able to:

  •  Fund eye surgeries
  •  Help teenage mothers return to school
  •  Provide housing for families in need
  •  Provide medical care for a variety of illnesses
  •  Distribute food and school uniforms
  •  Launch small businesses

Looking ahead, I aim to pursue a master’s degree in social welfare to enhance my capacity to serve Ghanaian communities more effectively. I also plan to launch a program that will focus on vocational skills training for young mothers, become a recognized philanthropist in Ghana, and build lasting partnerships with NGOs and institutions that are committed to socioeconomic development.

Thank you to Vicki Blumberg and Rick Hughes for supporting my educational journey and medical care. Thank you, Jennifer Millett-Barrett (Mafa) for being my mentor and an inspiring example of a true humanitarian.

Chris

Nursing
Valley View University
Graduated in August 2025

My experience studying nursing at Valley View University has been incredibly enriching. The school provided a strong academic and personal journey, offering a supportive environment for teaching and learning. Over time, I developed a deep passion for patient care, especially in witnessing recovery processes. This has inspired me to stay updated on emerging health trends and diseases.
My thesis was titled “Family-centered Care and Support for Dying Patients in the Palliative Care Setting at Ridge Hospital, Accra, Ghana.” My qualitative study gathered information from patients with life-limiting conditions regarding the supportive care they were receiving and the obstacles they encountered. My research will assist in identifying strategies to improve services at Ridge Hospital to support the needs of dying patients and their families in the Ghanaian context.
Looking ahead, my greatest desire is to work in a hospital theatre. The surgical environment fascinates me—it’s a space where transformation happens, and being part of a team that helps restore patients to full health would be truly fulfilling.
I am blessed to still have both of my parents in my life for emotional support, but they never would have been able to provide an education for me beyond elementary school due to their hardships. My parents and I are grateful for everyone who saw the potential in me and helped me achieve my dream. Your support has been life-changing for my entire family.

Irene

Physician’s Assistant
Central University
Level: Senior

My time at school has been a journey of growth, friendship and unforgettable memories. I’m grateful for the challenges that have made me stronger, teachers who inspired me, and to all Dream On donors who made this journey possible.
I have most enjoyed the hands-on experience and mentorship provided during my hospital internships. I completed my first internship at St. John’s Hospital and Fertility Center and shadowed the doctors in internal medicine, general surgery, pediatrics, ENT, and obstetrics and gynecology. I am currently completing a second internship at Providence Specialist Hospital where I am receiving diverse experience there as well. This coming year, I will start a year-long internship at Sumhum Government Hospital.
My favorite subjects so far have been microbiology and general surgery. The ability to save lives through skillful hands inspires me deeply. It’s a challenging path, but one I’m excited to pursue with dedication and purpose. I’m especially interested in working in underserved areas where access to surgical care is limited.
I’m deeply grateful to everyone who has supported my journey from elementary school through college. I will be a first-generation college graduate. My life would have been vastly different without the guidance and assistance of Dream On and its supporters.

Bright

Public Health
University of Ghana
Level: Sophomore

As a student at the University of Ghana, my journey into the realms of anatomy and physiology has been nothing short of transformative. Each lecture, lab session, and late-night study has deepened my appreciation for the intricate workings of the human body. It’s a field that constantly amazes me, revealing the delicate balance and resilience that sustains life.
I’m aiming to work in a leading healthcare facility, hopefully as a specialist in preventative medicine. I’m eager to contribute to innovative approaches in patient care and community health.
I lost both of my parents in a car accident when I was six-years-old. It has been a tremendous struggle to survive every day and obtain an education throughout the years. I worried that even if I achieved high marks and earned admission to college, I would not be able to afford to pay tuition and other expenses.
I am profoundly grateful for the unwavering support of Dream On donors, which has made this enriching experience possible. Your generosity has changed my life and inspired me to strive for excellence in my studies. It’s a privilege to pursue my passion, and I am committed to making the most of this opportunity.
May God richly bless you for your kindness and dedication to fostering education. Your investment in students like me is an investment in a brighter future for me personally as well all of the people I will be able to help. I am determined to contribute to society in meaningful ways, thanks to your belief in my potential.

Desther

Statistics
Kwame Nkrumah University of Science & Technology
Level: Sophomore

University life has shaped me in many ways and has taught me independence, decision-making, and how to understand and work with different people. I have made a few wonderful friends, and I am hopeful to achieve even more before completing my four years. With the support and coaching of my mentor, I co-authored a research article on the prevalence of depression among tertiary students in Ghana, and I look forward to publishing another paper under my name by the end of this year. I am also developing my teaching skills by helping classmates better understand courses that they find challenging.
So far, my favorite courses have been Calculus I & II, Probability Distribution, Statistical Inference I & II, Statistical Reasoning, and Numerical Analysis. These courses have strengthened my analytical thinking and problem-solving skills, which I believe will prepare me well for my future goals.
Earning a degree in Statistics is only the beginning of my academic journey. My dream is to further my studies in Epidemiology at Penn State University, where I hope to deepen my research and contribute meaningfully to public health.
One thing university has taught me is that schooling is not for the weak. One must not take any course lightly. Challenges will come, emotions may rise, but I must keep pushing, stay focused, have a vision, and always strive to challenge myself.
Finally, I want to say a very big thank you to all the donors who support Dream On International. Your sacrifices and generosity are not in vain. May God richly bless you for making my journey possible.

Michael

Mass Communication & Journalism
BlueCrest College
Level: Senior. Expected graduation in March of 2026

National Film & Television Institute (NAFTI)
Level: Diploma

My experience at university will always be remembered as a time in my life where I made many beautiful memories and was full of hope about shaping my future.
Studying Mass Communication and Journalism at BlueCrest College introduced me to people from various cultures and languages and I have gained experience through these connections as much as I have learned in the classroom. My classes were small in numbers, but my classmates were very intelligent, creative, and engaging. I most enjoyed the classes where we blended with mates who were studying different programs but also taking some communication courses. Though the program was based in theory, it was very interactive, which suits my personality and style of learning.
I have finished my course requirements and am working on my thesis, which should be completed by December. I expect to graduate in the early spring of next year.
Before my experience at BlueCrest, I received a certificate from the National Film and Television institute (NAFTI) in Mass Communication, where the program format was heavily dependent on practical study with the use of a TV and radio studio. My studies there greatly improved my confidence in front of a camera. I also learned about production behind the camera, which has been very beneficial. The combination of theory at BlueCrest with practical application at NAFTI has given me a well-rounded education in Mass Communications and Journalism.
I had the opportunity of interning at the first television broadcasting station in Ghana, GTV (Ghana television), where I worked under a sports anchor who mentored me on television news and gave me the chance to write a sports story which was presented live on the news. That was an opportunity I’ll never forget.
My love for sports is leaning me towards working in sports; however, I also enjoy social media, photography, and videography and see the media space as a great opportunity for creative journalism. I am optimistic about my future to earn a good living and know I will work hard towards achieving everything I dream. Many kind people have been guiding lights for me since I was a young boy, and I’m grateful to everyone who made my educational journey possible and gave me inspiration.

Daniel

Information Technology
BlueCrest College
Level: Senior

As a student of BlueCrest College, one of the most exciting parts of my educational journey has been diving into my favorite course, Networking. This fundamental course taught me the core concepts about how networks connect and communicate, which included learning about hardware, infrastructure, software, security, network protocols, cloud computing, operating systems, and more. This course inspired me and deepened my passion for technology and building, managing, and creating secure networks.
With my degree in Information Technology, I hope to step into a role where I can design and efficiently manage networks for businesses or organizations. Whether it’s as a network administrator, security analyst, or IT consultant, I want to use my skills to solve real-world problems and keep people connected.
College life itself has been a mix of challenges and growth. Balancing classes, projects, and personal life isn’t always easy, but it’s in this environment that I’ve built resilience, found great friends, and discovered what I truly want to do in life. It has been more than just earning a degree. It’s been about becoming the kind of person who will be prepared to face the future.
I am grateful for the opportunity to go to college and acquire skills that will help me obtain financial freedom and stability. I have a very positive outlook on life and most often believe that things will work out for me by the grace of God, but when I stop and think about my beginnings in life, I know it was not by the grace of God alone. My good fortune has also been by the grace of people who cared enough to support me and ensure that I will be equipped to succeed in life.

Business Management
University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA)
Level: Junior

My time at the UPSA has been a real journey of growth—challenging, for sure, but also very rewarding. I found my passion in classes like Marketing, Business Finance, and Company Law, which have helped me to understand how businesses operate from the numbers on a spreadsheet to the rules that guide them. Most of all, I discovered that I love the idea of bringing people together and building strong, supportive teams.
For an upcoming project, I intend to explore “How to Keep Employees Motivated in Ghanaian Companies.” I plan to conduct qualitative research by interviewing HR managers and employees to understand what makes someone feel fulfilled in their job and inspires them to stay long-term. I hope to find practical ways to make workplaces in Ghana better, because when people are happy at work, everyone benefits.
During my recent break, I was selected to participate in a data labelling and AI training program and received a full scholarship. I completed the course with high marks and Datamaker Ghana Ltd. invited me for an employment interview. Since I have two more years of college until I complete, I had to turn down the job offer, but it felt great to know I will be ready for professional employment soon.
Looking ahead, my dream is to become a manager or Human Resource Manager at a great company. I’m excited by the idea of supporting a team, solving problems together, and helping a business grow from the inside out. For me, it’s all about being in a position where I can help people thrive, and in doing so, help the whole company move forward.
I’d like to thank everyone who has helped me and my siblings thrive in life and in school over the years. I cannot conceive of what our lives would have been like and where we would be today without the massive support we have received.

Joyce

Music Education
University of Education, Winneba
Level: Junior

My experience in the music program has been rewarding both academically and personally. Throughout my studies, I have developed a strong interest in several music courses: Orchestration, Compositional Techniques, Elementary Harmony, Psychology in Music, and Original Composition. Among all these, Original Composition stands out as my most loved course, because it allows me to be creative and express myself through my own musical ideas. I find great joy in writing music that speaks to peoples’ emotions and experiences.
I also have a deep appreciation for African Traditional Dance. Even though it is quite challenging, I enjoy the rhythm, movement, and cultural expression that it brings. It reminds me of the richness of our heritage and the important role that traditional music and dance play in our society.
Looking ahead, after graduation, I hope to become a music educator and a professional composer. I want to use my knowledge and passion to teach others, especially the younger generation. I also aim to contribute to the development and promotion of music in Ghana by creating original works that blend both classical and traditional African styles.
To everyone who supported me emotionally and financially on my journey, thank you for making me who I am today.

Integrated Science Education
University of Education, Winneba
Completed in June 2025.
Graduation in November

My time at the University of Education, Winneba was filled with the thrill of discovery and the pursuit of knowledge. I was drawn to the fascinating world of plants with Anatomy and Morphology being my favorite subjects. I found myself captivated by the intricate structures and functions of plants.
Post-graduation, I envision myself as a teacher, ready to impart knowledge to youth. My goal is to inspire and guide them on their educational journeys. The anticipation of my graduation in November is palpable, marking the culmination of my hard work and dedication.
My thesis, “Using Cooperative Teaching and Learning to Improve Students’ Performance” addresses the benefits of a collaborative teaching model that focuses on organizing classroom activities into academic and social learning experiences. This innovative method leverages the strengths of both teachers and meets the diverse needs of students.
Looking ahead, I aspire to become a lecturer at the university level. My journey is marked by a passion for education, a desire to inspire, and a commitment to making a difference in the lives of others. I’m abundantly grateful for everyone who gave me the gift of an education and a bright future.

Kennedy

Information Technology
Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration
Level: Senior

School has been a mix of challenges and fulfilling experiences for me. I’ve had the chance to learn a variety of subjects, but the class I have enjoyed the most is System Administration, because it really shows me the complexities of how computers and networks work in the background.
I also appreciate learning about the practical side of things, like when we built a GPS tracking system and a health response app. The health response app was one of my favorite projects, because it was designed to help people quickly reach emergency medical support through technology. That made the work feel useful and real.
With my degree, I want to use what I’ve learned to build technology that solves tangible problems. I’m especially interested in cybersecurity and artificial intelligence, because I see them as the future.
Outside of class, I spend time teaching myself skills such as ethical hacking, assembly language, and AI, because I’m naturally curious, and I think these are important tools in understanding the rapidly changing landscape of technology. My goal is to build technology that’s not only innovative, but also safe, reliable, and helpful to people everywhere.
I would not be here today in my final year of college if it were not for the kindness of the people who invested in my future. Thank you for your extraordinary generosity.

Portia

Fashion Design
BlueCrest College
Completed June 2025. Graduation to be Announced

As I stand on the threshold of this new chapter in my life, I am filled with immense gratitude and pride. My journey at BlueCrest College in the fashion design program has been an incredible experience that has not only enabled me to hone my skills, but also instilled in me a deep passion for the industry. Throughout my time in school, I had the opportunity to explore various aspects of fashion, but one subject that truly captured my heart was Garment Construction.
As I graduate with a diploma in Fashion Design, I am excited to take the next step in my career. I look forward to applying my creativity and passion for garment construction to make a meaningful contribution to the fashion industry. Ideally, I would like to operate my own boutique.
While I have been waiting for my graduation day to be announced, I have been keeping busy with learning additional useful skills. I completed an intensive course in hair braiding recently. I enjoy being creative whether it’s sewing clothes or designing stunning hairstyles.
I would like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to my sponsors, without whom this journey would not have been possible. Your generous support and belief in my abilities have been a constant source of motivation for me. Your investment in my education has enabled me to pursue my dreams and explore the world of fashion without any limitations.

Oliver

Nursing
Nursing & Midwifery Training College, Keta
Level: Senior. Expected graduation in Spring of 2026

My journey in college has been an enriching and enlightening experience. I am profoundly thankful for the obstacles that strengthened my resolve, the lecturers who nurtured my curiosity, my parents whose steadfast support sustained me, and the Dream On donors who made my academic pursuit possible.
As I near completion and reflect on my experience, my favorite courses were Basic Nursing, Microbiology, Supply Chain Management, and Therapeutic Communication. I also enjoyed my internship at Volta River Authority Hospital in Akosombo where I carried out a Patient and Family Care Study. This project involved providing continuous care to patients from admission through discharge and extended follow-up into their homes. The experience deepened my appreciation for comprehensive, family-centered care and underscored the importance of compassion and continuity in nursing practice.
Looking forward, I aspire to continue advancing my education to acquire a higher degree. My goal is to be a pediatric nurse and contribute significantly to the advancement of nursing within Ghana and beyond. I’m grateful for everyone who has helped me and my sister achieve our dreams. As we say in Ghana, “Akpe ka ka ka” (Thank you, and I wish you a thousandfold return of kindness).

Esenam

Health Information Management
Cape Coast University
Level: Sophomore

I’m thrilled to be making great strides in my studies and I’m excited to share some highlights of my college experience with you.
Academically, my favorite class so far has been Disease Classification and Coding, which addresses the principles and methods of classifying and coding diseases for epidemiological, clinical, and administrative purposes. I have learned a great deal about the different types of diseases, the origins of diseases, how the name of the diseases came about, and the official rules for coding and reporting. My classes have been challenging; however, I have thoroughly enjoyed the coursework and the opportunities to apply what I’ve learned.
As I look to the future, I’m eager to pursue a career in a hospital where I can use my degree to impact lives by collecting and protecting patient health information data. Alongside protection, I also believe that understanding how we can improve our own health and advocating for our needs is very important. I hope to be an advocate for patients’ rights.
I’m grateful for the support of Dream On donors and look forward to staying in touch as I continue on this path. Thank you for believing in me and investing in my education.

Caroline

Journalism & Communication Studies
University of Education, Winneba

Level: Sophomore

From a young age, I have always been passionate about storytelling, writing, and sharing information that can inspire change. Choosing journalism as my course of study is a dream come true, because it gives me the opportunity to develop my skills in news writing, reporting, and media practice.
As a student, I am eager to learn more about the media industry, especially how journalists can use their platforms to promote truth, educate the public, and give voice to the voiceless. I take inspiration from great journalists who have stood for integrity and professionalism even in challenging situations.
In the future, I aspire to become a well-respected broadcast journalist. My goal is to work with major media houses in Ghana and beyond, where I can contribute to informing society, shaping opinions positively, and serving as a bridge between leaders and the people. With hard work, dedication, and God’s guidance, I believe I can achieve this dream.
Many thanks to everyone who has supported my dreams. I would not be where I am today without your unwavering generosity and kindness.

Rose

Environmental Health and Sanitation
Akenten Appiah-Menka University
Level: Sophomore

College life has been challenging and exciting. At the start of my first year, I suffered the unexpected loss of my mother who had been very proud of me for being accepted into college. The beginning of college was both a stressful and welcome change due to my loss. I’ve learned to balance my studies with personal growth, and now starting my second year, I’m even more grateful for the opportunity to pursue my dreams.
My favorite class so far has been Environmental Health and Sanitation Education, because it has given me a basic understanding of how our environment impacts public health and what we can do to make communities safer and healthier. This foundational class has inspired me and brought into focus how important my role can be in making a difference in protecting people and our planet.
With my degree, I hope to work in environmental health management and create programs that promote better living conditions and sustainable practices. Thank you to everyone who has brought a smile to my face again with this incredible opportunity for a bright future.

Promise

Social and Community Development Studies
Evangelical Presbyterian University
Level: Senior. Expected graduation in spring of 2026

I am full of pride and emotion when I think about the struggles I have been through in life and realize that I am near completion of my college degree. There were many days I did not believe this dream would come true.
I chose Social and Community Development Studies, because without social programs and the consistent help from kind people, I would not be where I am today. I have experienced first-hand the positive impact and necessity for community development programs. Everywhere I travel in Ghana, I see great need for social support services, and I want to be a part of uplifting my people.
The Social and Community Development program covered a wide range of topics, such as education, psychology, sociology, social work, family and societal interactions, conflict resolution and mediation, sustainable development, and more. I learned from every subject, but most of all, I enjoyed the project work conducted in the villages that required us to interview community members, collect research, and write a report on my solutions to improve the quality of life in the community.
For one project, I discovered that the village did not have a source of clean drinking water and lacked toilets and urinals for sanitary elimination. The river was a source for both cooking and drinking water and elimination, which caused a number of diseases.
I have completed my classroom studies and am left with my thesis work. The name of my thesis is “Investigating Community Support Systems and Challenges Faced by Elderly Women: A Case of Akoefe-Avenui Community in Ho Municipality, Volta Region.” The study examines the unique challenges faced by elderly women, including limited access to healthcare, social isolation, and economic dependency. I expect to be completed with my research by December and graduate in the spring of 2026.
I would not be standing here on the threshold of graduation without the loving support of many people who believed in my potential, especially Mama Colleen and Papa Steve Carrico. I hope to make you proud in the future by giving back to my community all that you gave to me.

Anani

Information Technology
University of Professional Studies, Accra (UPSA)
Level: Sophomore

My first year of college was both exciting and challenging. It was a big change from high school. Now entering my second year of college, I feel more confident on campus and in my classes.
I am interested in being a data analyst after I graduate, but I am not sure in what industry yet. There are many areas where data analysts are employed—financial, healthcare, marketing and research, etc. I think these next few years of college will help me to figure out which business sector interests me the most.
I have been learning about the mining industry where IT plays a crucial role to enhance efficiency, safety, and productivity across various operations, from exploration to resource management and administration. With the global demand for minerals on the rise and mineral production in Ghana a lucrative business, I see a lot of potential for IT professionals to make a real impact in this field. Adoption of IT in mining has been slow in Ghana, but I see this as a potential for growth.
What also made me interested in the technology field is the flexibility that comes with a career in IT. As a data analyst, I’ll have the opportunity to work full-time remotely for a company from the comfort of my own home. This means I’ll be able to work on projects that involve analyzing data on mineral deposits, optimizing extraction processes, and identifying trends in the industry all without having to be physically present in a mine.
With a degree from UPSA, I’m confident that I’ll have the skills and knowledge to succeed in whatever industry I eventually choose. I’m enjoying my college experience and am excited about the career opportunities that lie ahead of me.
I extend my gratitude to the many people who had a hand in raising me up, investing in my future, and believing in my ability to succeed.

Richard

Building Technology
Accra Technical University
Level: Sophomore

University life has been quite an adventure so far. I find lectures to be engaging and enjoy collaborating with classmates; however, as a mature student, juggling my job with managing a college workload can be challenging at times. I am learning how to balance my work–school–life schedule to meet deadlines successfully.
As part of my program, I have had the opportunity to visit some construction companies in the area, which has given me a glimpse into real-world applications of the concepts we’re learning in class. It’s fascinating to see how the theories and principles we’re studying are used in actual construction projects.
After completing my degree in Building Technology, I plan to use my knowledge and skills to pursue a career in the construction industry. I’m interested in working on projects that involve sustainable building practices, energy efficiency, and innovative construction methods. I’m excited to apply the concepts I’ve learned in class to real-world problems and contribute to the development of the construction industry in Ghana.
Some potential career paths I’m considering include working as a construction manager, project manager, or sustainability specialist. I’m also open to exploring opportunities in research and development, where I can work on developing new building materials, systems, and technologies that can improve the construction industry.
Overall, my experience in the Building Technology program has been enriching, and I’m confident that the skills and knowledge I’ve gained will prepare me for a successful career in the construction industry.
It’s been a struggle to find work without a college degree or skills training and I am grateful for this amazing opportunity given to me by Dream On donors. As a mature student, I have a greater understanding of why education is vital to my growth and ability to earn a living wage. Thank you to Dream On supporters for helping me achieve my goals.

In Memoriam

These photos were taken in the years that Wisdom lived in the Dream On Home.

Wisdom

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of a member of the Dream On family. Fifteen years ago, Wisdom was living at home and attending school when the course of his life changed in an instant. He was kidnapped and trafficked from Ghana to Nigeria as part of a large-scale human trafficking and forced labor operation. He was forced to work on a farm under the supervision of armed guards with hundreds of other children.

Wisdom attempted to escape and when he was caught, he was beaten to within “an inch of his life,” as he described. Months later, on a heavy rain-soaked night, he made a second attempt to escape and was successful. It took Wisdom eight months to walk back to Ghana, stopping for periods of time to work for food along the way. Once in Ghana, Wisdom reported his experience and the trafficking operation to authorities. He was placed in the Dream On Home where he tried to heal and rebuild his life.

Wisdom’s trauma was extensive, and it was challenging for him to resume normal activities, such as maintain focus in school. Despite the care provided for him and his own advocacy for his siblings to come under the care of Dream On, after a few years, Wisdom decided he wanted his independence. He left the home.

Dream On maintained connection with Wisdom and offered to give him training at Agyle Safety Training. He accepted the offer and chose to enroll in forklift training. He continued to make his own way in life until a tragic motorcycle accident took his life a couple of months ago.
Though Wisdom’s journey could be defined by life before and after the day he was kidnapped, some things about him remained constant, and it is how the Dream On family will always remember him. We remember the light in his eyes that refused to be dimmed and continued to seek joy and opportunity amidst dark memories.
We celebrate his gentle spirit that had experienced the harshest of treatment and continued to try to trust people. We honor his resilience, protectiveness, and firm sense of justice that pushed him to risk his life to not only save his own, but to try to save the other children by reporting his experience to authorities. It was this same protective nature that compelled him to advocate for assistance to be given to his siblings—all five of whom have been under the care of Dream On since Wisdom had the courage to speak up.
Rest in peace, dear Wisdom.
Thank you to AlexiAndrea Borden for your sponsorship of Wisdom for the duration of time that he was a member of the Dream On family. You made Wisdom feel loved, valued, and safe.
