Join Urban Dreams for an unforgettable evening celebrating four decades of community impact and 10 years of Roasting & Toasting impactful leaders in Iowa.

This year, we are proud to honor Dolph Pulliam, a Drake basketball legend, Iowa’s first African American television broadcaster, and a longtime advocate for equity, youth, and education. Dolph’s career in Iowa spans nearly 50 years, and his dedication to service reflects the spirit of Urban Dreams.

Proceeds from this event benefit the Urban Dreams Youth Employment Program, which provides paid job experience, mentorship, and leadership development for 25 Des Moines students ages 14 to 19.
