Local COW

Through their integration into their communities, our local hubs have provided Art Kits to different communities in need. Working closely with schools, social services, and disaster relief organizations, we have distributed Kits to those individuals who needed it most, allowing them to find creative outlets to help deal with situations they may find themselves in.
