In 2008, "Dream On" was created by the CEO and founder of Appletree Answers. This program mirrors the Make A Wish Charity, but for internal employees. Every employee at Appletree has the opportunity to submit their Dream to a review board. There is no limit at all on the size and scope of the Dream. Randomly, throughout the year Dreams are granted and wishes for individuals, families, fellow associates, even strangers come true.
A few examples of the 25 Dreams granted to date.
- Two employees who were homeless and living in their cars with their families now have new apartments
- An employee who's spouse has a very serious and potentially terminal illness met an entire NFL football team after attending the game
- An employee, with a very great need of her own, requested to change her dream to help a total stranger - a mother of a child fighting cancer. The woman was unable to afford time off from work to be with her daughter, so both their dreams were granted with Appletree covering one month of living expenses for the mother.
The benefit of this program beyond trips, sporting events, and other "purchased" items, is the company culture where employees look to do things for each other and literally are "Paying it Forward" every single day. Join Appletree and make a Dream come true!
