Our Mission & Values
Dolly Dreams Foundation is rooted in the belief that care should be dignified, accessible, and led by community voices. Our values guide how we steward resources, build partnerships, and support women, girls, and families across local and global contexts.
Dignity & Responsible Stewardship
We believe dignity begins with how resources are handled and shared. We carefully steward donations and in-kind support to ensure supplies are distributed thoughtfully, equitably, and in ways that respect community needs. Whether providing postpartum care kits, menstrual products, or disaster relief supplies, we prioritize transparency, accountability, and fairness so resources reach people in meaningful and appropriate ways.
Community-Led, Place-Based Collaboration
Our work is built alongside the communities we serve. We partner with local organizations, schools, and trusted leaders in Florida, Louisiana, and Jamaica to ensure programs reflect lived experience and cultural context.
By working with on-the-ground partners, we strengthen local systems, avoid one-size-fits-all solutions, and support efforts that are rooted in community knowledge and leadership.
Care Across the Postpartum Year
We recognize the postpartum year, including the fourth trimester, as one of the most critical and underserved periods for maternal health. While many systems end care within weeks of birth, we focus on sustained support throughout the first year postpartum. Our work connects mothers to essential supplies, mental health resources, community-based support, and spaces of care that promote healing, safety, and stability well beyond the early postpartum weeks.
We recognize the postpartum year, including the fourth trimester, as one of the most critical and overlooked periods for maternal health. While many systems end care within weeks of birth, research shows that nearly half of pregnancy-related deaths occur in the first year after delivery, with suicide being a leading cause of death during the postpartum period. Our work focuses on sustained support beyond the early weeks, connecting mothers to essential supplies, mental health resources, and community-based care throughout the full first year after birth.
If you are located in South Florida, particularly the Miramar area, and are interested in collaborating to support postpartum mothers and families, we welcome you to reach out at admin@dollydreamsfoundation.com.
We are planning a community baby shower for expectant mothers in Spring of 2026 and need your help!
Joy, Beauty, & Everyday Wellness
We believe care should also feel good. In addition to meeting basic needs, we intentionally provide items and experiences that bring joy, comfort, and confidence to everyday life. From beauty and personal care products to community celebrations and moments of ease, we honor joy as a meaningful part of wellness, dignity, and healing for women, girls, and families.
Because care should be practical, sustained, and rooted in dignity, joy, and community.
