Art Heals! Art has the power to transform lives. That’s why we make it our mission to connect children who have experienced trauma with resilience-building arts programs and caring adult mentors. OUR MISSION

Volunteers and supporters make it possible for us to bring transformative arts programs to children who have experienced abuse, neglect, or homelessness. Whether you host an art supply drive, become a volunteer mentor, or make a donation — your contribution is crucial.

Take the Foster Care Tax Credit

With the Arizona Foster Care tax credit, you can direct your tax dollars to help bring transformative arts programs to children affected by trauma. 

Host a Peer-to-Peer Fundraiser

When you host a peer-to-peer fundraiser, all the money you raise allows children participating in Free Arts programs to express themselves and build resilience.
