Healing through art, faith, and community.
Because of you, lives were changed.
Your generous support made it possible for children, families, and communities to experience healing, hope, and joy through the creative process of I AM ART. Together, we invited hundreds of participants to explore beauty, confront brokenness, and discover restoration—often for the first time.
Thank you for being part of this movement. Your gift didn’t just fund a camp—it opened hearts, sparked belonging, and helped restore lives through the power of art, story, and community. We are so grateful for your partnership.
GRACIAS!
