Welcome to my fundraising page! I hope you stay and donate to Snow City Arts, a very worthy cause!
I was introduced to Snow City Arts (SCA) a few years ago and was so impressed by it, I knew I had to be more involved. I joined the SCA Auxiliary Board in early 2016 and am currently their Membership Vice Chair.
I will be running the Hot Chocolate 15K on October 29th with Team Snow City Arts in hopes to raise funds for this amazing organization. Snow City Arts provides art education to approximately 1,200 children and youth in Chicago area hospitals (Lurie Children’s Hospital, Rush Children’s Hospital, John H. Stroger, Jr. Hospital, Children’s Hospital University of Illinois and Central DuPage Hospital). Whether a child is in the hospital for a long-term stay or a short one, Snow City Arts turns their time to heal into a time to learn, providing these young patients with instruction in creative writing, music, visual arts, filmmaking and theater. Each arts-based workshop is benchmarked to state and federal learning standards and can be used for classroom credit, helping these students remain in-step with their peers.
There is so much more to say about SCA and I encourage you to check out their website, www.snowcityarts.org, and please donate to my race!
