Art YOU Ready? Campaign Launch!

The COVID-19 pandemic, racial justice-related unrest, and present climate
crises highlight the importance of connectedness and community in
the face of uncertainty.

Fires and hurricanes thrive in greater intensity and number every year. Marginalized communities respond to unchecked police power and brutality.
The pandemic poses threats to everyone we know and love. The moment calls, now more than ever, for investment in community, in the shared mental and spiritual condition. 

Our children will change the world, and we know that art empowers
them to grow. 

AHC helps children and families prepare for the future through art. Through the Art YOU Ready? campaign, we aim to distribute 3,000 Art Kits to Alameda County children and families to direct them to crucial emergency resources
and to create self-awareness and community engagement through art.
We hope to embolden the communities first affected by present crises.

Art skills empower child development and community engagement. At AHC, we have served Bay Area families by empowering artistic expression since 1989. With this new campaign, we aim to address this pivotal moment by empowering students to express themselves through artistic response. When you give today, your gift puts quality art materials in a child’s hands alongside disaster readiness information; keeping families creative and safe!

AHC recognizes the opportunity to invest in children and their families through the
Art YOU Ready? campaign.

Your donation enables distribution of Art Kits that artfully prepare
students for emergency.
