On a day when we remember a great man, we must not forget his dream. Martin Luther King, Jr. envisioned better tomorrow and continues to inspire those to make that day a reality.

This Fall, 5th graders from the I Have a Dream Foundation-Richmond at Broad Rock Elementary shared their own dreams for the future through our songwriting program led by Maurice Jackson, Josh Scolaro and Qasarah Bey. The Dreamers recorded their song about a week ago at Rainmaker Studios.

We hope you take this day not only to reflect on the struggles and sacrifice of great leaders like Dr. King, but to also think forward about how you can make a positive difference in your own community and your own life. Share your dream and make it a reality.
