DreamSteps Foundation

A world where every child — no matter their hometown or financial situation — can dream big, move freely, and grow into the person they were meant to be.

Our Story

Founded from the heart of a dancer and a skater, DreamSteps was born out of a simple but powerful wish: to give back to the small community of Ida-Virumaa, where I grew up and where opportunities for children are far too limited.

Many young people there dream of doing sports, dancing, or pursuing art, but often lack the facilities, resources, and support to make it possible.

We are here to change that.

Through DreamSteps, we support children in Ida-Virumaa by opening doors to sports, dance, camps, and artistic opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach. Our mission is to guide the next generation toward brighter paths, keeping them inspired, active, and full of hope.

✨ How We Support

Access to Sports & Arts: Funding participation in local training, competitions, and artistic programs.
Opportunities Beyond Ida-Virumaa: Helping kids travel to camps and events they could not afford otherwise.
Positive Pathways: Creating safe, meaningful activities that keep children engaged, motivated, and growing.
Annual Summer Camp: Every summer, we organize a Dance & Sports Camp in Ida-Virumaa for children supported by the foundation — a chance for them to learn, connect, and shine.

💙 How You Can Help

Every step counts. By joining classes at our Dance & Skating School in Verbier, you’re already helping. 10% of all course income, as well as personal teaching hours, are donated directly to DreamSteps Foundation.

Want to do more? You can support DreamSteps through donations, partnerships, or by spreading the word. Together, we can make dreams possible.

🌍 Our Vision

A world where every child — no matter their hometown or financial situation — can dream big, move freely, and grow into the person they were meant to be.

🔑 How Does It Work?

DreamSteps Foundation is here to support kids in Ida-Virumaa to follow their passions in sports, dance, and the arts. Applying is simple — we want to hear your story and help make dreams possible.

Application
- Parents (or kids together with their parents) can write to us directly, telling us what sport or artistic activity the child would love to pursue.
- They can share what is needed most — for example: equipment, training fees, travel to a camp or competition, or extra coaching.
Stipendium Support
- Each year, the foundation provides stipendiums to children based on their applications. We accept applications all year round, but stipendiums will be given out three times a year - January 8th, May 8th and September 8th.
- Support may cover training costs, gear, travel, or participation in special events.
- We prioritize children who show commitment, motivation, and passion, but above all, we want to give opportunities where they are most needed.
Summer Camps & Events
- Every child who receives a stipendium is also invited to join our annual Dance & Sports Camp in Ida-Virumaa free of charge.
- The camp will also be open to all kids in the region — creating a space where children can meet, learn, play, and get inspired together.
- Our other workshops and events during the year are built around the same principle: inclusivity, inspiration, and joy.
Community Spirit
- DreamSteps is about more than just financial support. It is about building a community of young athletes and artists who can inspire each other.
- By sharing their stories and achievements, our scholarship kids will encourage others to dream big and keep moving forward.
