Children with critical and/or chronic illnesses and life-altering disabilities experience feelings like pain, fear, depression, anxiety, isolation and lack of control over their lives.
Their family members are also strongly affected by seeing them go through those challenges.

Because of the current situation, all art programs had to be suspended for the safety of the children and volunteers.
Many of the hospitalized children had toys removed from their play rooms for hygiene reasons, and their interactions with nursing staff and family is limited.

They are also preparing workshop videos for children to do creative art projects at home & to use video conferencing to interact with their Art Club students.

There's also a more personal way to help:
You can purchase art supplies for the students, so that CHAP will have enough stock to start doing new, creative art classes when they're able to personally meet the children again.
