Have A Dream is an organization that was initiated in 2014
by a group of young Egyptians who were inspired by the rich
experiences they had while traveling and dreamed of giving
the chance to the Egyptian youth in particular and youth from
all over the world to get out of their cocoon and be
introduced to different cultures as well. Moreover, we aim to
strengthen the relationship between the youth from the
Middle East through our different programs.

We organize cultural, voluntary and training opportunities to

provide youth the chance to travel and volunteer in different
countries all over the world. Our programs are designed to not
only be introduced to different cultures, but we also make sure
you share your experiences with others as well as adopt new
skills to help you improve and rediscover yourself.

working on. This program is funded by the EU to promote
Solidarity and acceptance and aims at providing the youth with
better opportunities for the future.
