supporting Robbinsdale Area Schools
The Seven Dreams name comes from the 7 cities in the Robbinsdale Area Schools district
Brooklyn Center | Brooklyn Park | Crystal | Golden Valley

We make educational dreams come true for the students in the seven communities that make up the Robbinsdale Area Schools. Read our 2022-23 Annual Report.
To enhance learning, Seven Dreams funds Hands-On Learning Grant requests from teachers, and district-wide initiatives identified by the foundation.
The 11th annual Bird Bash supporting district theater and vocal programs was held on Saturday, March 2, 2024 at the Heritage Center of Brooklyn Center.
Working with school and community members, the foundation raises funds to give back to our school district. Our goal: inspiring and fulfilling educational dreams and experiences for all of our students!
