Dreams of Kindness story
Origin Story

Where Dreams of Kindness comes from.

Kindness is everywhere, but rarely organized. Most acts of generosity happen in private and never reach the people who need them most.

Dreams of Kindness was founded in August 2024 by Demilo Alanis to change that. To take the compassion that already exists in communities and turn it into systems that actually move resources, hours, and care to where they’re needed.

We’re not trying to replace kindness. We’re trying to scale it.

Our Approach

How we scale kindness.

We're a nonprofit, but we're built like a system. Three layers power everything we do.

01

Structured programs

Every initiative has a defined ask, a defined cost, and a defined outcome. Hot meals at $5. Recovered goods at $50/shipment. No vague good-doing.

02

Prosocial infrastructure

Volunteer hours, kindness points, and partner redemptions all run through Kindness Counts IO — a verification platform that makes every act measurable.

03

Partner network

Restaurants, warehouses, content creators, retailers. Kindness scales because it’s a relay, not a solo act. We power the relay.

Our Values

United by kindness, guided by shared values.

Empathy

We listen with open hearts because change starts with connection.

Sustainability

Our solutions aren’t quick fixes; they’re built to last.

Collaboration

We win when everyone wins, built on mutual success.

Transparency

We publish our impact, our finances, and our process. Trust is earned in daylight.

Verified

Registered, audited, transparent.
