Art for Autism

My students need an art easel and various arts and crafts supplies, such as glitter, stamps, and clay.

San Francisco, CA Grades PreK-2

We are creating a dynamic new learning environment for young children with Autism. Our program's students range from Kindergarten to 2nd grade and they are a very high needs group of students.

This classroom started this year with the idea that we can create a positive learning environment for these students within a public school community. We have been welcomed with open arms, warm hearts, and fantastic teachers, but HARDLY ANY MONEY for supplies.

One of the things that these children really enjoy and excel with is arts and crafts projects. We are able to teach them a variety of skills and broaden their understanding of many topics by using art in almost everything we do. However, art supplies don't come for free, and that's where you come in!

Please help us give these children a chance to enjoy their school experience and learn new things at the same time. Your donations will make it possible for children with severe Autism to make real progress on a daily basis.
