Give children the gift of self-expression and art experiences
Art and culture promote creativity, critical thinking and self-esteem. They help people build their own identity and to express themselves. Art hobbies teach emotional, people and social skills. They also increase empathy and promote well-being, as well as prevent bullying and marginalization.
Diverse, high-quality and meaningful cultural services and art hobbies should be available to all, regardless of one’s place of residence or the income level of one’s parents. Unfortunately, this is not yet the case, which is why we need your help.
How are the donations used?
The donations will be used to promote the cultural and artistic activities of children and young people, to promote children’s rights and to reinforce the competencies related to children’s culture. The donations will be used to organize art workshops, visits from artists, visits to art institutions, and to support the hobby opportunities of children from families with low income. The donations will also be used to promote advocacy work related to children’s culture and to advance cultural education plans. We are a non-profit association, and we do not distribute any profits to private individuals.
