My Project

I'm reaching out to you with a humble request that holds the potential to make a significant impact on the lives of our students. Our mission is to provide an equitable art education experience to these young minds, who have gone without an art class for over a year due to lack of resources.

Art education is more than just teaching children to draw or paint; it's a vehicle for self-expression, creativity, and personal growth.

It fosters critical thinking, problem-solving, and empathy, helping students develop into well-rounded individuals with the skills they need to succeed in all areas of life. I am requesting glazes, oil pastels, drawing books and more,

Sadly, our school's art program had been put on hold due to limited funding and resources. This has created an educational disparity, as many students in our community are missing out on the invaluable benefits of art education. We believe that every child deserves the chance to explore their creative potential and develop a sense of pride in their artistic accomplishments.
