Overview

Mission

Jackson Health to provide bedside art sessions, music appreciation, and interactive storytelling for pediatric patients. We distributed heART Bags with coloring materials and crafts for patients who could not leave their rooms, reaching over 500 children. We also maintained a Healing and Educational Art Studio in West Kendall, offered summer camps, and expanded our Paint and Play studio at Nicklaus Childrens Hematology/Oncology clinic. Our new initiative at Sylvesters pediatric oncology clinic further increased our impact, and opened our HEART Studio at Holtz Childrens in Fall 2025.

What it reported doing in 2025

Healing and Educational ART (HEART) workshop Program/ The Art of Literacy program

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue has grown recently. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
