Programs
Los Angeles, Calif. (November 21, 2012) – The Dream Center,
a volunteer driven organization that finds and fills the needs
of individuals and families alike, is proud to partner with
InfluenceTV to entice holiday spenders to shop for a cause.
InfluenceTV is a not-for-profit organization that aims to
change the way America spends money, and starting today
those who shop on www.influencetv.org, will have the
opportunity to donate a portion of their proceeds to various
life-saving programs provided by The Dream Center. Buyers
have the chance lend a hand to individuals involved with the
Emancipated Youth, Foster Care Intervention, mobile food
distribution, Human Trafficking, and at-risk teens programs.
“We are so excited to partner with InfluenceTV,” says President and Founder of The Dream
Center, Matthew Barnett. “People can find comfort that their money is going towards
changing lives for the better; what an amazing gift to give this Christmas!”
Thousands of products are available on the online shopping network, such as household
cleaning items, jewelry, skin care products, inspirational books and more. With every
purchase made, there is no additional cost as manufacturers have previously discounted all
of the goods, leaving a portion of every sale to support a specific outreach.
Customers can choose from the six of The Dream Center causes:
Under the Bridge: An outreach ministry that serves 1,500 hot meals every week to the
homeless population of Skid Row and the surrounding areas.
Emancipated Youth Home: A transitional residential facility that will serve as a bridge
to self-sufficiency for youth who have recently left the foster care system, ill-prepared to
face adulthood independently. This project is scheduled to begin Spring 2013.

and fresh rescued foods to homeless, low-income and food insecure families at 26 locations

trafficking in the United States. By rebuilding their physical, mental and spiritual
wholeness, Project Hope prepares women for their return to society, empowering them
with the ability to build trusting relationships, and with life skills that equip them to be
productive members of the community.
