Living The Dream Inc.

Our History..

Since our humble beginnings, we have been driven by a shared passion for making a positive impact on the people of Topeka, KS. From the day we took our first steps towards a brighter future, we have grown together as a community, overcoming challenges, and celebrating victories. Join us as we take you on a remarkable voyage, reflecting on the milestones, stories of resilience, and the unwavering dedication that has shaped Living The Dream Inc. into what it is today.

Living The Dream Inc. is a nonprofit organization that stands as a living testament to the enduring philosophy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Inspired by his vision of a world united in love, equality, and compassion, our founders embarked on a mission to turn that dream into reality. Driven by the belief that every individual deserves an opportunity to thrive and live a life free from discrimination, our organization was born. Much like the noble ideals Dr. King passionately advocated for, Living The Dream Inc. seeks to create positive change and empower communities through education, social justice, and the unyielding spirit of hope. As we honor the legacy of Dr. King, we continue to dedicate ourselves to the pursuit of a more just and equitable society, striving to make his dream, and the dreams of countless others, a living, breathing truth for generations to come.
