"Our goal is to raise $100,000 to provide art therapy to 100 children living in the slums over the next two years. It costs just $500 to support one child for an entire year. We’re seeking 200 generous donors who can each sponsor a child for one year with a $500 contribution, or $1000 over two years!!

One of the children shared, 'Before, I was always scared and quiet. Now, with painting, I feel like I can finally talk to others, even if it's just through my colors.'
