Welcome to the Dream Factory of Central Illinois!
The Dream Factory is the only children’s wish-granting organization that does
not limit its mission to children who have life-threatening illness. The
organization believes children with chronic illnesses and disorders also suffer
from substantial emotional and physical pain.
We strive to provide hope and relief from the trauma and corresponding stress
and depression that both the children and their families can endure on a
day-to-day basis. The fulfillment of dreams is not based on financial need and
our gift of a dream is not given as charity.
We do what we can to give a child and their family time to focus their attention
on something other than the illness which they face daily. Doctors agree that
providing a dream can improve the quality of life for these children and extend
the life of a critically ill child.
