What Is the American Dream?

Just as man cannot live without dreams, he cannot live without hope. If dreams reflect the past, hope summons the future.
— Elie Wiesel 1986 Nobel Peace Prize Lecture (September 30, 1928 - July 2, 2016)
 

Speaking from “I”…

The American Dream is the opportunity for a good job so if I work hard, I can take care of myself and my family. I want the peace of mind of knowing I can take care of myself when I can no longer work. I want to leave something for my kids so they will have fewer hurdles than the ones I overcame.

The Solution?

We have the resources. The delivery system is broken. Nonprofit investment in the people who need it.
