_________________________________


The Dream Center Lake Elsinore exists to care for and build community in our beautiful, historic city! We have been mobilizing volunteers to do just that since the summer of 2013 and have experienced so many incredible miracles and breakthroughs since that time! 
(Please feel free to visit our website to learn more about our mission, vision, and values... meet our leadership team... and to read some inspiring stories of changed lives)

We have been a very grassroots movement from the start as we would meet on the street corner to pray for our city before heading into the local parks and neighborhoods to serve and make a difference! Last summer we had reached a point where finding a facility to organize our efforts became a necessity.
We needed a physical location that could house all of our tools and equipment, be used for life-skills training classes during the week, serve as a safe place for neighborhood youth, and give our staff and volunteers a place to organize our expanding operations! 
As we began our search for a headquarters, we knew we needed to find a historic property in need of some TLC that could both serve our practical needs as well as illustrate our heart to bring restoration into our community. Last July we were able to secure an existing building right in the center of our adopted neighborhoods where we serve every weekend!

Earlier this year, after months of intensive planning and three public hearings, we received unanimous approval of our Conditional Use Permit with the city! Since then, we have been working with our own Construction Advisory Team to develop an incredible plan for reviving this historic property!

Our restoration budget includes:

Once complete, this property will not only serve as a multi-purpose facility to accelerate the mission of the Dream Center Lake Elsinore but will also stand as an inspiration to our local community of the incredible potential to bring positive change from within! We ask you to prayerfully consider partnering with us by sponsoring part of this project as we work to rehabilitate a historic property to be used for restoring lives that will revitalize our city. Thank you so much for your consideration and God bless you!!! 

Sincerely,

The DREAM Team
