Identify & secure food / snacks for Detroit children and youth

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: MINT ARTISTS GUILD

  • 2 people are interested

We are seeking a volunteer to research, develop and obtain sources of food, drink and snacks for the youth who work in the Mint Creative Summer Jobs program and possibly for others who join us regularly through the summer. Many of the youth come from low income or disadvantaged families and we wish to offer them a meal once or twice a week and /or healthy snacks every day.

We also hope to offer snacks to children who come to our free youth-led arts and crafts in Palmer Park and possibly a second Detroit park this year too.

These may be sourced from business donations, from USDA food programs, from other nonprofit food programs or other sources. Ideally we want them delivered to our studio in Palmer Park, Detroit.

Mission Statement

Mint Artists Guild helps to transform aspiring Detroit youth artists through education, exceptional engagement and experience, resulting in earning opportunities, skill-building, exposure, and mentoring. Mint launches creative careers and lasting connections. Mint also infuses the community with art and creative experiences, enhancing a collaborative, healthy and generous culture.

Description

Mint works with artists ages 13 to 23 on entrepreneurial, career and life skills, and gives them opportunities to sell their creative work. A summer jobs program, business workshops and online educational and informational resources are offered to young visual artists. In 2020, we launched the Metro Detroit Youth Arts Competition, a creative activity kit giveaway (of 5,500 kits) and in 2021, we launched leadership development training. This year, we are working on an alumni engagement program, adding creative jobs to our website and so much more. We need your help and support to continue our growth!
