Review for The Art of Elysium, Los Angeles, CA, USA
I heard about The Art Of Elysium through a friend who was volunteering at the time. She was so excited about her work there that I decided to attend an orientation meeting. I was immediately impressed by the organization and enthusiasm shown by all involved. After a full orientation about the organization, mission and activities I began volunteering at events. My most memorable moment was at in event done at a small Burbank airport in which old 2 seater planes were brought in. The kids were one by one taken up in the skies in these one of a kind planes. The looks on their faces, such joy, was incredible. While they waited their turn The Art of Elysium had set up several craft areas for painting and such. I really believe that I had more fun then some of the kids! It is a true gift to be able to provide moments when the children completely forget about their illnesses and can just be kids.

I volunteered while living in Los Angeles and it was such a joy because most of the time I didn't even realize that I was providing a service. It mostly just felt like fun moments hanging out with kids full of great spirit. I look forward to volunteering again when I move back to NYC.
