I am so pleased to acknowledge the receipt of these funds, which will be of tremendous assistance as we provide expressive art groups to homeless and other vulnerable children. Homeless children need a place where they can be children. They need an atmosphere of safety and acceptance where they can express themselves through art and words. With your grant to DrawBridge, you help provide that haven.
