About Dream Foundation

In April of 1993, Thomas Rollerson's Partner, Timothy Scott Palmer, was diagnosed with a catastrophic illness. When Timm expressed a final wish, Thomas phoned a wish-granting agency for children and discovered that no organization existed to honor the wishes of adults. Thomas found a way to make Timm's wish come true and, shortly after Timm passed away in the summer of 1994, Thomas created Dream Foundation to honor Timm's memory. Since then, Dream Foundation has granted thousands of dreams nationwide to adults who are battling life-limiting illness. The work of Dream Foundation is made possible, in part, through a grant from Odyssey HealthCare Foundation.
