The Journey Starts Here

This is your moment to step out of urgency and into clarity.

The DREAMS™ to Reality Assessment is a two-part experience designed to help you move from survival mode to alignment—so you can lead with purpose, invite generosity with confidence, and build support that’s actually sustainable. 

What You’ll Reflect On

Part 1: Journey to Generosity Focuses on how you're approaching fundraising, especially with individuals, families, and foundations.

Part 2: Strategic Sponsorship Explores how sponsorship fits into your funding model, especially when engaging companies or corporate partners. 

Not every question will apply. You can mark responses as “Not applicable” based on your role or focus.
