How Can You Help Us?

Email us at IWanttoHelp@artforlife.org and let us know what you would like to do. Here are some need areas:

Volunteers. Please email us for information on volunteering at our current locations. You may also ask any of our volunteers that are doing our programs for information. They will be glad to help you. Minimum age requirements for our programs is 18 unless otherwise allowed by the hospital. Current locations can be found on our programs page via this link.

Starting a Program. If you are on staff at a children's hospital and would like us to look at opening a site at your location, please have the director of Child Life Services or someone acting in a similar capacity contact us via email. If you are not on staff but live in a community that you feel would benefit from one of our programs, please contact your local children's hospital Child Life Staff and discuss it with them so that they can contact us.

Funding. Your donations can help any one of our programs. Please send a check to the Art For Life Foundation, P.O Box 162, Clayton, CA 94517. We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit so your donations are tax deductable. No amount is too small!

Supplies. Donate crayons, coloring books, arts and crafts for ages 5—18. We also need gift cards to help in art stores such as Michaels to purchase paints for our monthly ceramics programs.

Fund Raise. Have an idea to help? We would love to hear it! Ask your children's school to do a fund raiser. It's great when kids help other kids! Volunteer to be on a fund raising committee or chair one. All funding raised goes directly into our programs.

Hold a Benefit.Do you belong to any company, group or board that is art conscious? Ask them to hold a benefit with proceeds going to any one of our programs. Do you know that for under $200.00 a month you could fund an entire program. Contact us for details!

Printing Needs: Do you own a printing business or know of someone who does and would be interested in helping our nonprofit? We would be grateful for any help in the costs of printing brochures, postcards, cards and media kits that help promote our work. Email us and let us know how you can help.
