What is a Champion?

A Champion of Dreams is someone who doesn’t just talk about caring for children—they prove it through their daily actions. They encourage kids to dream big, advocate for opportunities, and create safe spaces where children know they matter. These are the people who model kindness, courage, and service.

What happens when you nominate someone?

Your nomination is the first step in celebrating their story. Once you nominate a Champion, our team will reach out to them personally. We’ll share that they were nominated, learn what drives them to support children, and invite them to be featured as part of the Champion Network. If they accept, we welcome them into our community of Champions, give them access to resources that help students thrive, and actively collaborate to bring as much support as possible to their student community. Their story will inspire others to rise up and become Champions too.

Why it matters?

Every new Champion adds to a growing movement of people who believe in children’s dreams. Their stories ripple outward—encouraging schools, families, and communities to rally around kids. Together, we are building a future where children’s dreams come first, and where those who champion them have the support they need to make lasting change.
