Singer-Songwriter and Philanthropist Dan Pallotta Shares Official Music Video for "All of Our Dreams," Taken from Stephen Gyllenhaal-Directed Feature, 'Uncharitable'
Massachusetts philanthropist and singer-songwriter Dan Pallotta is marrying the two worlds of his life’s work with “All of Our Dreams,” taken from the recent Stephen Gyllenhaal-directed documentary, Uncharitable, which advocates for securing greater funding for the nonprofit sector.
This stately and cinematic song was produced by Pinar Toprak, known for her work producing grand scores for Marvel blockbuster films. A critical production decision was to have the song sung not just by Pallotta, but by nonprofit workers from around the world.

It’s about having the grace to say no to old ways of thinking that no longer work, and to say yes to new ways of thinking that can work. Because that grace, or lack of it, is what’s standing between us and the world we really want — it’s what’s standing between us and all of our dreams. – Dan Pallotta
Sometimes I see all of my dreams
Picture comes into my mind
Everyone has what they need
Bells ringing all of the time
American philanthropist and musician Dan Pallotta has been writing songs for forty years, but took about a thirty-year break in the middle to create the AIDSRides, the Breast Cancer 3-Day walks, and the Out of the Darkness Suicide Prevention walks. 182,000 people took part in one of these epic, heroic journeys, which raised nearly $600 million in nine years—more money raised more quickly for those causes than any events in history, and were the subject of a Harvard Business School case study.
In September 2023, the Stephen Gyllenhaal-directed documentary film adaption of Pallotta’s book, Uncharitable, was released, which advocates for liberating the nonprofit sector to its true potential. It features Edward Norton, and the heads of TED, the Ford Foundation, the Nature Conservancy, Charity:Water and many other organizations. Pallotta’s TED talk on charity is the 16th most commented TED talk of all time. He has written five books, served on two school boards, sang the national anthem at a Los Angeles Rams game, and did not forget the words!
Pallotta’s music and his commitment to making a difference in the world are inseparable. He tries to write songs about the human condition, as experienced by all kinds of human beings across all manners of circumstance, and songs about the possibility of a world that could work for everyone.
