For their programs, is for arts mentoring program (youth ages 6-13 are provided with regular opportunities to express themselves creatively and engage with positive role models, also we doing free arts day is a variety of art projects with a supportive adult mentor.

For this programs are very crucial due to the fact only 8% of elementary schools meet state standards for arts education and, over 400,000 children are shut out of after school programs that only 1 in 3 children live in poverty, so based on those problem we really needs a solution to helps.
