I have had the opportunity to watch The Colored Pencil Project grow from the seed of an idea into an incredibly well organized, accountable and successful nonprofit. Bringing art supplies and lessons to children in developing countries is such a simple idea, yet so very powerful. This work has an immediate impact on the children, and for donors the benefits are visible and tangible. I know that the money I donate goes directly to bringing pencils and paper (and a lot of joy) to children all over the world. TCPP makes it easy to make a difference. And for this reason, I will continue to support them each year. The Colored Pencil Project has an excellent track record – it has reached some 2,000 children abroad in just two short trips and hopes to work with another 1,500 this year. Imagine what it will accomplish as this small but fast growing nonprofit attracts even more support for its easy-to-see results, dedicated leadership, playful multimedia and creative outreach. I hope you will consider giving your support to this very worthy and truly grassroots organization.
