My Nonprofit Reviews

I have been a member of the board of Art Expression from the date of its inception and I am proud of the wonderful work that Art Expression has and continues to provide to countless children. Even with the current unprecedented social and economic constraints which have limited the ability of Art Expression to provide face to face programming, Art Expression has utilized its resources to help children through video technology. Art Expression will continue to adapt to any challenges to provide children with quality programming.

I have been involved with Art Expression since it's inception. The programs provided are wonderful and the therapists are extremely dedicated and very creative. Over it's years of service, Art Expression has helped many, many children experience joy and peace through supportive surroundings whether it be in a classroom or a homeless shelter. With the way the world is going now, I think it more important than ever to have organizations like Art Expression to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children with a chance to be just children.

I have been involved with Art Expression for a very long time. Although I am not a qualified art or music therapist, I have met many of the professionals involved with the day to day workings of Art Expression's programming. In over 40 years in the business world, I have not seen any organization that has shown more passion and dedication to create, monitor and implement such marvelous programs in order to help children be children in a safe and nurturing atmosphere.

I have been involved with Art Expression since its inception. Over the years I have had the opportunity to work with many dedicated, selfless individuals devoting their time and energy to helping children find their true personalities and gifts through the social settings provided by the Art Expression programs. Growing up I was blessed to have a loving family and acceptance by my peers. I am saddened when I hear of the issues that young children face today, but proud of this organization's mission to provide a safe, nurturing environment for these children.

I originally got involved with Art Expression Inc. as a financial advisor. I was asked to be a Board Member because of my skill set. I had no previous experience with organizations helping children and having no children of my own, I looked at this as more of a business related function. As time progressed, although I had never personally attended one of Art Expression's sessions, I was able to see the results of the dedication of the art therapists and facilitators through videos and personal testimonials of the children attending the sessions. It was heart warming to see children developing a sense of self and building self confidence through the projects and interaction with other children. It was only recently, when I heard a personal testimonial from a prior student, that I remembered being extremely shy growing up and realizing that Art Expression is providing a vehicle to help children overcome self consciousness and provide a safe, nurturing environment where they can just be themselves.

I truly believe the purpose of Art Expression is a much needed safe haven for these children. Seeing the results of the activities and the effect on these children makes all of this work extremely worthwhile.
