The Dreamers Gala is a celebration of the accomplishments of our undocumented students and a fundraiser for the endowed Ignacio Ellacuria, S.J. Dreamers Scholarship, which provides financial assistance to students who don't have access to federal financial aid. This year's theme is A Decade of Dreaming: Rooted in Hope, Growing in Strength. Our keynote speaker is Brenda Citlali Brambila Flores, Arts '17. Join us to honor our students’ journey and renew our commitment to creating spaces where Dreamers can continue to flourish for generations to come—a legacy of dreams rooted deeply and growing ever stronger.
