Why We Rely on Members
DreamKeepers’ strength relies on its active and supporting membership to fulfill our mission to improve and empower the lives of the women at Family Recovery Center, and provide support to these women on their road to a successful graduation from the program at FRC. Supporting members’ annual dues are integral in ensuring that DreamKeepers is able to provide for the women and children of Family Recovery Center on a monthly and annual basis, including both simple daily needs like shampoo and diapers, to fundamental programs and training to help with each client’s success.
