Boldly Creating Life Foundation was officially approved by the IRS as a tax exempt organization on September 2011.
Much work ahead as we try to get the foundation off the ground. We have continued to offer art classes to children at the local elementary school, here in Escondido, CA, but we now need to find grant writers, volunteers, sponsors, and do fundraisers so that more children in elementary schools can experience an art class.
Just one art class can make a huge difference. I have talked to children who are now graduating from elementary school without having a single art class!!! Just one class can open the world to their creativity, to beauty, and another way of living.
This is a call to those of you reading, to visit our website, see the different ways you can make a difference. We look forward to working with you, as part of our community.
With Love,
Glad
