The History

Pilar Vélez was one of the 25 mentors of the Girls Going Places Foundation program in the United States, promoting entrepreneurship in low-income adolescent girls. During one of the annual meetings in Miami, she took the initiative to contribute her knowledge as an economist, entrepreneur, poet, and teacher. That morning, when the 100 girls from ASPIRA attended the conference at the Florida International University (FIU) to learn how to manage money, balance a bank account, and create a budget, they found a small envelope that contained a poem where their dreams spoke to them.

The sensitivity of those verses touched their hearts and was the key to an amazing day. The poem continued traveling to many meetings throughout the country, taking wings and enriching itself with activities and knowledge, turning it into Letter to My Dreams ™, an effective learning tool, and, most importantly, a source of inspiration for adults and children.

Each book of the collection presents a series of concepts and insights, rights, and educational activities, inspired by real events and characters that have left a legacy. Their stories teach us that people who dream and develop a vision have the power to transform the world. Thanks to their faith, effort, courage, and perseverance, they can overcome obstacles and achieve the impossible.
Each book opens a window of possibilities and serves as an approach to make us aware of crucial issues of the 21st century, where it is urgent to educate with sensitivity, train and empower us with noble and great purposes.

Some of the main objectives of Letter to My Dreams are to strengthen problem analysis, critical thinking, communication, and the ability to read and write. For this purpose, creative writing exercises have been designed and a series of terms alluding to the theme of the book and the life of each character. Readers can learn to write and pronounce these words through a bilingual platform that is available to them free of charge.

Letter to my Dreams ™ Workshops have been taught to children, youth and adults in Ecuador, Colombia and the United States.
