When We Close Our Eyes and Dream We See What’s Possible

The Carousel of Possible Dreams is a unique opportunity designed to give our charities an exciting and innovative way to raise funds and cultivate new donors. As a team, supporters of the organization rush onto a carousel – going around and around 50 times! For the weeks leading up to the carousel ride, each member of the team collects pledges online for committing to this dizzying feat! The goal is to raise enough money to fully fund a tangible, measurable program or a “Possible Dream”
– and have fun!

We Believe That Together
Dreams are Possible

We Believe That Together Dreams are Possible

The Carousel of Possible Dreams is a fun and exciting way for us to raise funds for the various programs at Orange County School of the Arts and California School of the Arts — San Gabriel Valley. Our teams at both of our schools have used money raised from this event to help fund performances, purchase necessary equipment for their conservatories and to fund each school’s Artist Scholar Sponsorship Program, allowing us to serve more students regardless of financial need.

Thanks to The Carousel of Possible Dreams, we have been able to bring one-of-a-kind arts and academic programs to students across Southern California. Thank you to Sandy Daniels and the Festival of Children Foundation for this wonderful opportunity. What’s more fun than an early morning at Disneyland?!

The Carousel of Possible Dreams is a unique opportunity that gives Festival of Children member charities across the country an exciting and innovative way to fundraise for their Possible Dreams.

Armed with nothing more than their cell phones and contact lists, volunteer fundraisers will climb aboard a carousel and go around and round and up and down. they call everyone they know and are not able to stop off until they reach their final fundraising goal.
