Children’s Dream Fund

The Children’s Dream Fund was established in April 2001 by the Parliamentary League to Consider the Future of Children, formed by nonpartisan national assembly members of both houses based on their desire to establish a meaningful fund for the future of young people.
To promote the healthy development of the next generation,with all their dreams and responsibilities for the future, the fund supports private organization projects such as nature camps, science experiment classes, and other experiential learning activities, reading activities such as a picture book reading, and development and promotion of children’s textbooks.
