Every donation helps us nurture young minds and spark creativity.

DSOA serves the whole student by focusing on three pillars to develop our youngsters: Arts Enrichment, Healthy Living and Academic Support. It’s more than an after-school program – it offers tutoring and reading help, hands-on healthy living, and immersive arts instruction (including fine, performing, and musical arts!).

We’re excited to offer this programing free of charge to 4th & 5th graders in the Normal Heights neighborhood and surrounding areas of San Diego thanks to our generous donors, community support, and volunteers!

Join us in empowering the next generation of leaders!

Thank you in advance for your generous support of our current and future Dreamers – we welcome donations of all sizes.

Your donation directly supports our programs and helps us provide free tutoring, music lessons, art projects, fitness, leadership training, and healthy snacks to every child. THANK YOU!
