Colossal Members have helped us reach fantastic milestone! We’re delighted to share that this month, we’ve officially assisted us in funding 100 projects in classrooms around the nation via . These include supplies and materials for K-12 students, some of whom are learning about and experiencing art for the first time.
A portion of all Membership fees are allocated to this initiative, and so far we’ve been able to contribute more than $13,000, making a substantial difference in numerous learning spaces. And since we’re based in Chicago, we especially like to support classrooms here at home. Here’s what a few recent recipients had to say after their projects were funded:
“These supplies will boost morale and prove to students they are seen and cared about. In a time when it is an act of bravery for them to leave their homes and be in school, the ability to be creative without any limits to materials means more than anything.” —Ms. Resnick, Gage Park High School, Chicago
“Thank you so much for your generous support of our 4th-grade classroom! Because of you, every student now has a set of vibrant watercolor paints to bring their learning to life.” —Mrs. Wilson, Dawes Elementary School, Chicago
“On behalf of our students, I want to extend a heartfelt thank you for your generous contribution to our art classroom. Your support has made a real and lasting impact — from sketch books to erasers to our art drying rack – every supply you helped provide has become a tool for creativity, self-expression, and learning.” —Ms. Pogue, Deneen School of Excellence, Chicago
