Mariposa’s Art
As you know I typically cover technology and Web related topics on this blog. However in this post I want to switch gears. Today I was invited to a fund raiser by my good friends Bill and Susan Wishon. They are part of a non-profit organization called Mariposa’s Art, which helps “at risk” youth by conducting after school programs.
They primarily operate within Santa Cruz, Watsonville and San Jose areas. In 10 years of their operations, they have helped over seven thousand individuals. Their after school programs provide classes on art and music to youth, thus fostering their creativity. This is an excellent program as it builds creativity and prevents youth from getting into the wrong habits They also have student teacher programs, which enable students to teach, thus building confidence.
I was very impressed by their efforts and success. I recommend you visit their website and make a donation if you want to help.
I wish them Good luck and thank Bill and Susan for making me part of their efforts.
Thank you for sharing this special unique program with others thru your blog as the Mariposa Arts programs which enables our children to recognize their inner beauty and value. The vitality of their programs and innovations are definitely worth supporting in every way as your donations go directly to these local children
A vision realized !!Thank all of you with Mariposa aAts
