Taste the Dream Gala

“In 2014, Sho and I talked about how we could use our annual fundraising event as an anchor for DreamWeek. We decided that there was no better way to celebrate diversity than through food. The SAGE Taste the Dream Gala was born from that conversation. The 2018 Gala will be our fourth. Each year it has gotten bigger and better. We have sold out every year. It has become the must-attend party with a purpose.” –Jackie Gorman, CEO of SAGE

For the past four years, San Antonio for Growth on the Eastside (SAGE) has hosted Taste the Dream, a celebration of diversity and tolerance through international cuisine. Guests are invited to sample a vast array of choice cuisines and enjoy live entertainment and dancing.

You Speak, We Listen: A Millennial Civic Happy Hour

“MOVE San Antonio was proud to partner with DreamVoice for You Speak, We Listen: A Millennial Civic Happy Hour, a 2017 DreamWeek event displaying the power of millennial voters in our city. Through civic conversation, we connected hundreds of young people directly to elected officials and candidates, expanding youth knowledge of policy issues and building the next generation of San Antonio’s civic leaders.” – Drew Galloway, Executive Director – MOVE San Antonio

Dorćol Distilling Co partnered with MOVE San Antonio to organize a mixer featuring all of the candidates running in San Antonio’s 2017 municipal election. Candidates mingled with the audience and each was offered a few minutes to speak to the crowd.

Millennial Civic Happy Hour emphasized the value of younger generations taking action in their local community to affect change through the electoral system. The event provided an open platform for young voters to initiate face-to-face conversations with political candidates, empowering those voters to make informed decisions on Election Day.

SA2020 Impact Report Luncheon

“When you have collaborative efforts by people or institutions on targeted indicators, that’s where we start to see community change.” –Molly Cox, President and CEO of SA2020

For DreamWeek 2017, SA2020 partnered with the Witte Museum for the official release of the SA2020 Impact Report, a comprehensive review of San Antonio’s progress during the preceding year. The event recognized the organizations and community partners working together to move our city forward.

The SA2020 Impact Report Luncheon brought a local perspective to the conversation on diversity and equality. The insight provided by SA2020 highlighted the intersectionality of public welfare and social justice. It was an opportunity to reflect on the ways in which metrics and data collection can offer us a glimpse into the present condition of our community.
