I was inspired to be actively involved with Dreamcatchers for the Soul from its inception, because the organization’s mission and vision resonated with me. I have seen firsthand how DCFTS has positively impacted the lives of children and their families, by exposing them to life-changing holistic wellness practices such as mindfulness, yoga, qigong, healthy eating, and more. At the recent 10-year anniversary gala, I was moved beyond words to see and hear a male teenager voluntarily step to the microphone to let the entire room of attendees know how much his exposure to a DCFTS program had positively impacted his life. This is just one example of the difference deference that DCFTS has made and will continue to make in the communities it serves.! I am grateful for this organization!
I have assisted and attended several events during the years and have heart felt moments. I've had the opportunity to see the positive changeful impact the sessions have had on those that have attended.
Usually most caregivers and children first attend with speculation but there is a noteable change in their energy and emotional acceptance during the event. By the end of the day all have a new and respectful insight about the information provided. Most stated how grateful they were for coming and receiving the the knowledge that was given.
As a society which is built on negative consumption of all things, it is not only refreshing but humanely humbling to know that we are still striving for self acceptance in a mindful way and have individuals who are willing to share their knowledge and time to teach us to do better fir ourselves and as a urban community/village.
Thank you Pam and DCFTS in your continued efforts to effect all you reach. We would continue to be lost.
I learned and experienced so much with this non profit. I love what it stands for and how it’s dedicated to keep us peaceful and happy and positive about life❤️ a breath of fresh air!
I look forward to seeing the young ones learn so much more than what they are taught in school, a higher learning. They are taught mindfulness, healthy eating, yoga and too much to name. We see organizations like this for grown ups but not enough around for our youth, who are our future.

Being a part of this organization is a rewarding experience. For the past several years, I have been blessed to assist in the Back To School program. The kids are served breakfast and lunch and At the end attend various classes throughout the day. The kids receive backpacks with school supplies. The smiles on their beautiful faces lights up the heart and appreciation and hugs touch deep down in the soul.
Thank you Pema for all you do

I have TWO WORDS that describe Dreamcatchers For The Soul Foundation …”GOD’S WORK!” Pamela Reid shared her Vision with me over a decade ago that she was being “Called” to work with young people, their parents and teachers. Her mission was to Promote Peace by educating them by applying skills of Mindfulness, Yoga, Tai chi, meditation etc. into their lives.
10 years later I had the Honor to attend the recent Gala celebration of their 10th Anniversary. I was extremely Moved as I witnessed countless Testimonies from young people, on how their lives have been impacted by the Skills they learned from DCFTSF!
It is Crystal Clear that the Services provided are Truly Needed, NOW more than ever!! I have no doubt that the future of DCFTSF will continue as an Entity of Transformation in the community as they continue to do “GOD’S WORK!”
Dreamcatchers is an amazing organization! They expose children and adults to wonderful skills that they will be able to use for a lifetime to help ground themselves and maintain focus to achieve whatever they desire.
As an adult I learned that meditation yoga and mindfulness help me to achieve my goals. These skills have helped me to achieve wild success - children learning these skills and practicing them throughout their lives would have a fantastic head start on human development .
My Mom taught meditation as a child but I didn’t take it seriously until my 20’s. Dreamcatchers shares these building block skills with adult and children which can only enhance individual lives for a better community as a whole!
Thank you Dreamcatchers!!
In a world where everything has become a challenge & there seem to be no coping strategy, everyone seems to be looking for an answer. That includes our children. ouu youths.
Dreamcatchers for the Soul is a non-Profit organization that place emphasis on the overall wellbeing of our children, i.e., their emotional, physical, spiritual, Mental to groom them into the leaders that they will become.
The amazing thing is that DCFTS do not focus on the children only, but also include the parents in the equation to fully maximize their mission.
Dreamcatchers for the Soul, an organization that is truly creating an impact.
My experience with Dreamcatchers for the Soul has been amazing. The events and lectures they provide within the communities here in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach has personally touched my life and individuals in the surrounding three counties.
DCFTS.org takes great pride, care, and genuine concern with each child. They have been attentive, compassionate, patient, and mindful of each child's individual needs.
I hope to see DCFTS as the leader in this space of helping children navigate personal traumas, bullying, social conflicts, self-regulation and self-esteem.
Dreamcatchers is doing phenomenal work bringing mindfulness to those who most need it . They teach meditation, breathing, Tai Chi, Qigong, Reiki and much more. These modalities help with stress, regulate emotions, and heal trauma. Mental and physical health is greatly improved when practicing these mindful modalities. Even though the focus has been on the children they know the value of teaching parents, caretakers and seniors as well. They are very passionate about making a difference in a life and care deeply for the wellbeing of humanity.
They have an event every year that not only provides free back to school supplies, but teaches children healthy living, such as yoga and cooking. I personally look forward to the massages and classes for the adults lol. i think what they do is great!! You see these great programs for adults but I don't recall ever seeing them for our children and they are our future.
I've had the pleasure of working for and with Dreamcatchers for the Soul Foundation on more than one occasion and the word that comes to mind is FAMILY. The DFTSF team lives their mission—to nurture and support the spiritual, physical and mental health of the children in their community. I'm impressed with their continued growth as a service organization whose aim is to heal the world and make it a better place for all of us.
Dreamcatchers has reached out to more than 5000 children in the last 7 years through the Lotus Workshop. These workshops have been informational, enlightening, and hands-on techniques to empower the children.
Dreamcatchers for the Soul Foundation is an amazing non-profit that focuses primarily on teaching mindfulness and related skills to children. My first involvement was approximately 5 years ago teaching energy healing at the annual children's retreat and I've been working with this group since that time. The children's retreat as well as all events sponsored by Dreamcatchers For The Soul Foundationfocus offer excellent classes and experiences to the children they also present classes and services for parents as well. The executive director, Pamela Reid has a clear vision of her goals and is passionate about her mission. I am proud to be an ongoing service provider and advisory board member to this group of truly dedicated community leaders providing much needed services to our children and their families.
I have been aware and had the privilege of working with this group recently. It teaches mindfulness listening and speaking to our youth, respect, meditation in order to keep our youth from being drugged and using their words rather than their fists to communicate. Ms. Pema Reid, founder, should have her program acknowledged and incorporated into school curriculums. Imagine....
Dreamcatchers for the Soul Foundation is so much more than just a foundation. They reach in deep to the souls of these children and their families to provide opportunities for better lifestyles. Yoga, healthy eating, back to school support are just a few of the rewarding opportunities they offer the community. The founder works tirelessly to achieve greatness for these children and to see the smiles on all these kids faces speaks volumes.
I attended the Children of the Lotus Retreat in 2017, and was blown away by the positive atmosphere of love, education, and fun! You could tell that passion, attention, and organization went into a great day, filled with activities and resources for both parents and adults. I applaud Pema and her whole team for the awesome work they’re doing in the community.
