Our Cause

To help people discover their superpowers, build better behaviors, and take action toward what they believe.

Our Mission

To help 100,000 individuals discover their superpowers by utilizing social-emotional learning (SEL) tools, training, and techniques to better process their feelings, manage their emotions, and build stronger relationships.

Impact — Youth

We will establish 5,000 Dream Weaver Academy cohorts, certify 500 DreamWeavers, partner with 100 school districts, and raise $200 million in the next 5 years to fully support 100,000 dreamers so that they can better process their feelings, manage their emotions, and build stronger relationships long-term.

Impact — Adults

We will host Sip N' Stitches with corporate and institutional partners, sell 24,000 Fund-A-Bration boxes, and secure 5 Stitch-for-a-Cause installations within 5 years so that we can help 50,000 more women rediscover their superpowers, reengage their emotions, reconcile the past, and reconnect with their communities.
