CoachArt Goes Virtual!

In response to the coronavirus pandemic, we’re using online tools to continue to offer free arts and athletics programming to families impacted by chronic illness and to give our community new opportunities to make a difference.

Somewhere in your neighborhood, a child impacted by chronic illness is hoping to learn the skills that YOU have to offer. With just 1 hour a week, for 8 weeks, YOU can make a difference in that student’s life by coaching them in an art or athletic activity of your choice.

As part of our matching process with volunteers and students, we use the power of extracurricular activities such as painting and cooking, as a source for the self-expression and empowerment that our students need.

All matches are made in a virtual 1-on-1 or group setting and are tailored to fit your background as a volunteer, according to your activity interests, location, and time availability.

So whether through music or sports, dance, or poetry (and everything in between), the opportunity is there for you to make a lasting impact today!
