Make Dreams Come True

I'm very excited to write about an organization that I'm involved with, Dream On 3! Dream On 3 is a nonprofit organization that provides sports-themed dream experiences for children with life-altering conditions.

Dream On 3 organizes customized VIP experiences with favorite athletes, sports teams, or sporting events to create an unforgettable experience for its Dream Recipients. Dream experiences in the past include spending a day with the Carolina Panthers, Seattle Seahawks, Tim Tebow, Drew Brees, Chicago Cubs, Miami Heat, NASCAR etc.

Dream On 3 invites college students to form Collegiate Dream Teams to plan, fundraise and rally fellow students to support someone in their community living with a life-altering condition through a sports-themed experience.

I am a member of the UNC Collegiate Dream Team! We are in the process of creating a basketball dream experience for our Dream Kid, Kendall Geer. Kendall is a five-year-old boy who lives with Down syndrome. He is the most outgoing, energetic, and loving boy who sparks joy to everyone around him. I have a great relationship with him and his family through my time with the UNC Women's Lacrosse team and GiGi's Playhouse, so I am very excited to help create this dream experience.

The Geer family LOVES sports and are the biggest Tar Heel fans I've ever met. Kendall and his family deserve an amazing sports experience, so we are working hard to make it happen. Professional basketball teams not having fans due to COVID-19 has made it a challenge, but we are making progress to create an unforgettable experience sometime in the near future.

We are currently fundraising to help make Kendall's dream sports-themed experience come true. Visit my donation page if you would like to help make his dream possible!
