Foster A Dream

Barry and Shae have actively supported the Foster A Dream organization for the past five years. This charitable organization works to build a brighter future for Bay Area Foster children by providing support programs, mentoring services and financial assistance. Barry and Shae help support their annual Dream Gala, which is the organizations largest fundraising event. At the gala this year, Foster a Dream was able to double the money awarded to deserving foster youth pursuing a college education to over $20,000 in “Dare to Dream” Academic Scholarships. Barry and Shae were happy to sponsor and present Porsche Hudson in 2006 and this year chose Kevin Givan as the recipient of their $2500 scholarship. Each year Foster a Dream holds it’s Annual Holiday Toy Drive and Holiday Wonderland. In 2005, Barry and Shae helped sponsor the holiday festival so it could expand to a 4,000 square foot building, allowing more children to experience the joys of the season. Bay Area foster youth had the opportunity to visit the Holiday Wonderland and take photos, stuff their own stocking and pick a gift from the toyshop.
