We are very fortunate and blessed to have forged tremendous partnerships in our community. Our local businesses have rallied around David’s Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation and our families affected by a cancer diagnosis.

Scojo’s Restaurant in Surf City, NJ are one of our main sponsors since 2011 and they continue that tradition year after year. Scott, Joe, Dawn and the Incredible Staff have sponsored various events including: Frank V. Panzone Jr. Memorial Cruisin for a Cure, Crabbin for a Cure and participated in our first ever Dine to Donate last year!

Scojo’s Restaurant recently returned from a brief 2 week hiatus, where they underwent some inside renovations to the restaurant, to unveil a new schedule serving breakfast and lunch only. We are hoping Scott & Joe will find a little time to relax with the new schedule and hope that all of our friends support Scojo’s Restaurant throughout the year!!!

Generation Dream
Generation Dream

The youth service group of David’s Dream & Believe Cancer Foundation called  “Generation Dream” was created by Director Kim Manzella and our first meeting was held on June 25, 2014. We had approximately 22 kids at our first meeting and by the end of 2014 we had 75 amazing kids dedicated to making a difference in the lives of our families affected by a cancer diagnosis.

Generation Dream was responsible for raising $7,689.32 in donations to benefit David’s Dream & Believe families.

This inspiring group of kids managed a family fun day on the Seaside Heights Boardwalk for families battling cancer. They created personal cards for many of our patients and put together numerous care packages for our patients and their families. Generation Dream put the finishing touches on a very successful 6 month opening campaign in 2014 by hosting a Holiday Party at Southern Ocean Medical Center for their Oncology patients.

We are having our first meeting of 2015 on Monday February 9th 6:30pm at the Beach Haven Moose Lodge on Rt. 72 in Manahawkin, NJ. Our meetings are always open to newcomers and community service hours can be earned through various events and programs throughout the year!
