DREAAM

DREAAM is a nonprofit 501-c3 project of the Dr. Bell's Student Success Enrichment Center. It focuses on developing and preparing at-risk black males to be productive citizens in society through education, skill development, leadership development, and self-awareness. 

DREAAM is an acronym for “Directly Responsibility of Educating African American Males.” DREAAM seeks to teach young men how to become innovative,  productive, and responsible by providing quality mentoring, education, and social services to cater to their development.

Our Nation in Crisis

Today, there is an increase in the number of children in the black community growing up in poverty and communities ravaged by violence. It is very hard for some families to meet the necessities such as food, clothing, and shelter. Youths living in poverty have lower self-esteem, higher absenteeism in school, or drop out of school altogether. Youths who drop out of school will most likely never escape the grip of poverty, creating a cycle of despair and hopelessness.  But, just because they are unlucky to be born into the underserved community, they should not be deprived of access to quality education and mentorship that will make them useful to their community. This is why Frankie Leshawn Bell deemed it fit to establish a company that will help at-risk youths. This gave birth to DREAAM (Direct Responsibility of Educating African American Males). 

DREAAM is an Alabama-based start-up non-profit organization that will focus on developing and preparing at-risk black males to be productive citizens in society through education, skill development, leadership development, and self-awareness. We seek to teach young men how to become innovative, productive, and responsible by providing quality mentoring, education, and social services to cater to their development.
