Overview
Mission
As a supportive and preventative means of enhancing children's mental health awareness, acceptance, and wellness, our mission is to use the creative arts to activate healing, spark creativity, foster learning, empower individuals, and cultivate community connections. By offering a range of creative artistic activities and programs, we aim to empower children, promote self-expression, and enhance their overall well-being. Or more simply put- we are kicking anxiety with creativity!
What it reported doing in 2024
General programs - our general programs provide creative arts classes and workshops to both children and adults in our studio as well as helped fund our gnomes on the roam program for workshops in the community. With our general programs we were able to serve over 2000 children raising awareness for children's mental health and teaching coping mechanisms for anxiety and depression.
Operating model
- Revenue model
- Earned-program. 66% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
- Distribution model
- Direct operator. The filing allocates 97% 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
SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and a relatively small share of total spending goes to programs.
