2023 Art Kits For Foster Kids

Since 2020, I’ve been donating my time and energy on my birthday and working with local foster agencies, MSPCC & Kid’s Net Director, Paris Figuero, and CSO Volunteer Coordinator, Allison Weissman, to fill backpacks full of art supplies and get them into the hands of foster children.

To date, we have delivered over 900 backpacks.

We are now working on filling another 300 backpacks full of art supplies for summer of 2023.  Here are several ways you can donate and/or contribute to help us reach our goal this year.
