A key component of the Second Wind Dreams program is its volunteers. The volunteers are the people in the community that make the dreams come true. It is through their work and dedication to the dream that we change society's perception of aging - one dream at a time. Volunteers come from all areas of the community. It takes all sorts of resources to fulfill dreams.
Some volunteers prefer to make monetary donations to help with a dream.
Other volunteers select an eldercare community in their area that is already in the dream program and obtains the list of dreams from that community and goes about the business of finding ways to make those dreams come true. Still others adopt a community in their area. When this happens the volunteer obtains consent and a contact person from the administration of that community and signs the community up in our program. A manual will be sent to the volunteer or contact person in the community to get everything started.
