U.S. Programs
Homeless Shelter & Community Programs
Children living in homeless shelters and refugee children join us in creating art projects centered around sharing with them a vehicle to visualize a break from the cycle of poverty. We empower them to reach their dreams while boosting self-esteem.
Self-pride is a sustaining emotional anchor that can carry children through times of turmoil and transition that they encounter during the cycle of homelessness and poverty. Our desired outcome when creating art with the children is to provide happiness, awareness of self, empowerment and a sense of belonging. Through our programs, we prove to the children that you can attain anything you can imagine. Within the United States, we currently have programs in Atlanta, Orlando, and Louisville. Support our programs with a monetary donation or by volunteering today!

Children's Art Shows
We have many art shows multiple times per year where we all dress up and take the children to have a party at their very own art show!
It is usually the highlight of their time with us!
