Help Make a Dream Come True
Dream Makers is powered by the generosity of our community. Whether you give your time, resources, or financial support, you're helping bring comfort, joy, and meaning to someone’s final days.
Here are a few ways you can get involved:
Make a One-Time Donation
Your gift — no matter the size — helps us fulfill final wishes for terminally ill adults in our community.
Fundraise on Our Behalf
Host a fundraiser, offer a donation-based service, or dedicate proceeds from an event.
Local business Om Shanti Massage has offered treatments where 100% of the proceeds went to Dream Makers.
Interested in fundraising?
Donate Your Resources
From unused airline miles to theme park passes, vacation rentals, or private chef services — your unique resources can help us make Dreams come true.

Give Monthly
Support Dreams year-round by making your donation a recurring gift. It’s a simple way to create ongoing impact.
Contribute Through Your Business
Make giving part of what you do.
Some of our partners, like The Schwaegerle Real Estate Team, contribute a portion of their sales to support final wishes. It’s a powerful way to connect your work to a cause that matters.

Refer Someone for a Dream
We work closely with healthcare professionals, hospice teams, social workers, and caregivers in San Luis Obispo County to reach individuals who may not otherwise hear about Dream Makers.
If you work with people facing terminal illness — or can connect us with those who do — we’d love to partner with you.
Whether it’s sharing our program, making a direct referral, or helping identify those who may benefit from a final wish, your involvement helps us reach those who need it most.
