The Live a Dream program demonstrates Trilogy Health Services’ continued commitment to exceeding the expectations of our seniors and their families in everything we do. Live A Dream offers brand new experiences for our seniors at Trilogy that thought they would never get to accomplish. It offers opportunities for seniors to enjoy activities that they used to do more often, but have since been unable to do so. This time, however, we make them extra special! Live A Dream not only grants these chances, such as skydiving, zip lining, or riding motorcycles, but we also grant priceless experiences that encourage us all to keep our dreams alive.
A Community of Compassionate Volunteers helps us turn wishful thinking into wonderful reality. Without our interns and volunteers, we would not be able to impact the lives of so many seniors. We invite you to share in our mission and join us in fulfilling a dream today!
A Network of Support allows Live a Dream to create experiences that are cherished by seniors and their families for years to come. Thanks to the generosity of these individuals and organizations, we’ve accomplished more than we ever thought possible.
Thank you to the following organizations:

When Diane was in high school, she was faced with the incredible task of having to care for a growing family and was unable to complete her education. Thanks to the dedicated team at The Meadows of Kalida, Live A Dream worked with the Kalida principal, Dean Brinkman, to officially present Diane with her high school diploma – an amazing accomplishment for the most deserving woman.

A disability-inclusive campground, Bradford Woods is funded by Indiana University and home to ziplining, pontoon boat riding, fishing, and archery – making for one of the best group Live A Dream’s ever. 133 residents from over 30 campuses were smiling from ear to ear as they took part in a variety of camp activities that were both wheelchair and handicap accessible. We were grateful for the opportunity to grant so many dreams in one day!

Steve, a resident at Forest Glen Health Campus, has always wanted to pay his respects at the 9/11 memorial in New York City. He and his wife had planned on visiting the memorial and museum during their honeymoon, but eventually decided it wouldn’t be feasible due to health concerns.
In 2022, Trilogy partnered with Bridge The Gap senior living podcast during their 2022 VIP Ignite Experience conference in Nashville, Tennessee. Shortly before the closing address, special guest Michael Williams of Sanders Ridge Health Campus received the surprise of a lifetime – being given special VIP tickets to visit the Grand Ole Opry with his sisters, Connie and Brenda.
These smaller dreams make an enormous impact! Everyday Dreams cost less than $250 and include dreams that seniors may think of every day, like riding a motorcycle again, celebrating a very special anniversary dinner, or even going zip-lining.
These larger-than-life dreams cost a max of $5,000, and have included a trip to Indy 500 Practice Day, a Hot Air Balloon Ride, Skydiving, and meeting KISS. If it’s on a senior’s bucket list, we can help make it happen!
Some dreams are even sweeter when they’re shared with friends. Group Dreams consist of 20-200 people, and often involve partnerships with outside organizations. These dreams have included a VIP trip on the Belle of Louisville, a Detroit Tigers Game, and Tethered Hot Air Balloon Experiences.
We’re proud to partner with Honor Flight to fulfill the dreams of seniors who have served our country. Live a Dream will pay for guardians to accompany senior veterans on these special trips to Washington, D.C., which include deluxe tour bus service, meals, snacks, souvenirs and more.

Doug grew up in Minnesota and has fond memories of riding his bike with his brother to the local recreational airport watching the planes take off. Thanks to the team at The Oaks at Byron Center and assistance from EAA Chapter 145 Doug flew from Riverview Airport in Jenison, MI and out to the Holland Lake Shore.
Doug said he "This was an experience you can't put a price on! I felt like the President of the United States."
THANK YOU EAA Chapter 145 for helping Doug's dream become a reality!

Pam has been an avid animal lover her whole life. Her favorite animals are cats. Pam has had multiple cats since she moved to Indianapolis in the 70’s. Some of her favorite cats were Shadow, Sherman, Molly and Maggie. She often named her cats after characters in 17th century literature. One cat that is close to her heart is Kit. Kit is a rescue cat from Ohio. She is referred to as having 1 tooth, blind in one eye and walks crooked. Kit is currently living in Maryland, so Pam doesn’t get to see her very often. The staff at Clearvista Lake Health Campus sent the cat loving Pam to a local cat café, the Smitten Kitten, to play with adoptable cats before coming back to the campus. Upon her return, she was given a cutout pillow that has a picture of Kit on it to be able to have her favorite cat with her always.
