Mission Statement

To provide empowerment to youth in homeless situations to express themselves creatively and to develop sustainable values through art exploration.

Description

ChopArt empowers homeless youth to practice positive self-expression through the use of art. We offer on-site art courses to middle and high school aged youth including the media of poetry, painting and photography. ChopArt also offers mentorship and impact assessment in a program model customizable to each shelter's circumstances. Through our program we have been able to inspire young lives in South Africa, India and the United States since 2010.

Our youth have something to say and they speak up despite the worry that on one's listening. By 2014, ChopArt will help over 300 homeless youth develop sustainable life skills and values through art, one-on-one mentoring and open ears!
