Dream On began with four students from Anglo-Chinese Junior College who have a passion for music to inspire the needy students of The Straits Times School Pocket Money Fund (SPMF) to dare to dream. Through the inspiring lyrics and youthful tunes that had been especially composed by the team leader, they hoped to convey the message “Dream On” Cos Dreams Don’t Need Reasons to Live”. Dream On hoped to encourage youth to pursue their dreams with a positive mindset, to take action and bring their dreams to life... They did this through producing an original music album with 1,500 copies to be sold on the streets at $15 each.

They mobilised more than 860 volunteers from all walks of life and did six street sales to solicit donations from the public and sell their CDs. A free entrance ticket to Dream On@ DXO concert worth $15 was given for every purchase of their album. Dr Vivian Balakrishnan was the Guest-Of-Honour at the concert where it featured the tracks in the album and more than 600 people turned up at the event.

Dream On raised a total of $45,010.72 for SPMF and heightened public awareness of their VWO through the distribution of 10,000 ZoCard, 20 on air lives reads sponsored by Power 98, headline news in Young NTUC website. With the help of Young NTUC, they disseminated information of their project to a database of approximately 400,000 Union members. Dream On was also featured in Lianhe ZaoBao.
