Fostering Dreams & Building Leaders

The Selfless Love Dream Tank competition is the capstone of our independent living initiative. Each year, youth with lived experience from across the state apply for this once-in-alifetime chance to present their dreams in front of a panel of judges.

The finalists are selected and begin a journey that includes professional speaking classes, speech writing and presentation, business etiquette and development, and presenting in front of legislators and child welfare leaders at the Florida State Capitol at the Rally in Tally.

At the competition last night, each finalist was scored on the content, organization, and delivery of their speech along with their stage presence.

What’s Next?

The 2023 Dream Tank winner will be announced tonight and receive a check for $5,000! Each finalist receives $1,000.
