Our mission is to inspire creativity, build confidence, and nurture self-expression through professional mentorship in a safe, supportive environment.<\/p>\n<p>Our program launched in 2014, offers weekly hands-on art sessions led by experienced mentors. In Summer 2025, we are expanding to a four-week immersive program, with three sessions per week, utilizing both indoor and outdoor spaces to stimulate imagination and play. Students will explore drawing, illustration, character design, animation, toy design, and storytelling \u2014 while learning fundamental artistic skills and techniques.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond skill-building, the program cultivates emotional resilience, collaboration, and pride in personal and cultural identity. Youth participants are mentored to become storytellers, creative thinkers, and future community leaders. We aim to reach underserved children in rural Northern California who may not otherwise have access to high-quality art education.<\/p>\n<p>Grant funding will support art supplies, mentor stipends, and scholarship opportunities for low-income families. With community engagement at its heart, the program concludes with a public art showcase to celebrate the children\u2019s work and accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>Our vision is to make art a lifelong tool for empowerment, healing, and joy. Through this program, Bless The Children Project is planting seeds of creativity that grow far beyond the classroom.<\/p>\n<p>Total Project Budget: 22,500<\/p>\n<p>Other Funding <br \/>\nSources For The Project (Committed &amp; Potential): Other grants applied, private donations<\/p>\n<p>Project Duration: Entire school year<br \/>\nGeographical Area Served: Mount Shasta and the area<br \/>\nAge Group To Be Served: 7-12<\/p>\n<p>Contact Information<\/p>\n<hr size='1' noshade='noshade' \/>\n<p>Contact Prefix (Mr,Mrs etc.): Mr.<br \/>\nContact First Name: Baruch<br \/>\nContact Last Name: Inbar<br \/>\nContact Title: Executive Director<br \/>\nContact Phone: 5122227824<br \/>\nContact Email: Baruch@snaut.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hermanowski Family Foundation Initial Request Form Organization Name: BLESS THE CHILDREN PROJECT Legal Name (if Different): BLESS THE CHILDREN PROJECT INC.
