Congratulations, you've been selected!
Welcome to the iDream family
We are so glad you are here
The iDream team has chosen you as a recipient and we hope that this gift serves you and your future.
Below you'll find everything you need to know before your gifting session. Please read through it. It's short, we promise!
Before your session
To make the most of your gifting session, please take a few minutes to get the following ready. Don't worry, our team will guide you through everything in person too.
Have an email/appleID address ready: You'll need one to create or log into your Apple ID. If you don't have one, we can help you at the session.
Don’t forget your password: If you don’t already have one, you'll need this to log in with your Apple ID. It should be something memorable but not easy to guess. We suggest writing it down somewhere safe.
Come with questions! Our volunteers love helping you get comfortable with your new device. No question is too small.
At Your Session
Your session will be held in person with our volunteers. Here's what you can expect depending on the device:
Mac Setup
We'll walk you through turning it on, creating your Apple ID, and the basics of using your Mac day to day.
iPhone Setup
We'll help you set up your Apple ID, connect to Wi-Fi, and show you the most useful features.
iPad Setup
We'll get your iPad personalized, signed into your account, and ready to use for school, work, or everyday life.
Good To Know
Frequently asked questions:
Is there any cost?
No — your device is a complete gift from iDream and our sponsors. There is no cost, no contract, and nothing to pay back.
What if I don't have an email address yet?
No problem! Our volunteers will help you create one at the session. You're welcome to make a new one beforehand if you'd like a head start.
Will someone help me if I'm not very tech-savvy?
Absolutely. Our volunteers are patient, friendly, and there specifically to help you feel comfortable. We meet you exactly where you are.
Can I bring a family member?
Yes! You're welcome to bring someone with you for support. Please let your coordinator know in advance if possible.
