"LIVE THE DREAM" SPECIALTY LICENSE PLATE
Welcome to the Dream Foundation, Inc.
This is an important year for the Dream Foundation. This year we celebrate the "Live The Dream" license plates 19th year as the nations first specialty plate with the image of Dr. King. Having the plate available in Florida tag offices for motorist to purchase has allowed the Foundation to continue fighting poverty, illness, and beginning in 2022 provide scholarships and reentry services.
We celebrate the Birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr and February Black History month. In doing so, the Dream Foundation will take every opportunity to discuss Kings legacy as it relates to the goals of the Dream Foundation. This began with the keynote speech at the Clay County MLK breakfast, taking place on January 15th, 2018. In 2019, in 2020 in the mist of the global pandemic of 2020..... in 2021 and today in 2023 we've continued reminding Floridians of Dr. Kings legacy statewide, as Florida and the nation continue righting wrongs regarding equality, opportuntity and justice.
In July 2021, The Dream Foundation held the states first "Florida Conference on Race, Equality, Justice and Opportunity", its 2nd annual in the summer of 2022 and on July 28-29, 2023 will hold the third annual conference. There is a story that continues to need to be told in America. In addition to perceptions on the progess of our joint humanity, we tell the story of the Dream Foundation... and how it aims to serve our state through the proceeds provided to our communities from the "Live the Dream" license plate, work of our dedicated programs, and your donations . Please join us around the state.
Blessings
Michael Dobson
