"I believe that everyone should be afforded a Dream come true as they near the end, to make life just a little more complete, says Pollack."
Pollack's business acumen developed early. At just thirteen, he built a million-dollar sports memorabilia business, while training to play professional baseball. And before the age of twenty, he had founded five different companies, on his way to being a founder or founding investor in over twenty more.
"Landon's passion for end-of-life support that stems from his youth volunteer work is incomparable," says Dream Foundation's Chief Executive Officer, Kisa Heyer. "We are eager to absorb his commitment, knowledge and understanding so that we may continue to expand our work of bringing inspiration, comfort and closure to this nation's terminally-ill adults."
