“Everyone at drawchange is extremely passionate about the mission at hand. This is so important to a nonprofit and made my internship worthwhile. I grew to become passionate about the needs of the children myself and going to the shelters is one of the most fulfilling experiences one can have. I got to witness the children grow and prosper from week to week, and really absorb the purpose of what we do. drawchange has a real impact on the children of the homeless community.”

“I deeply appreciate the impactful mission led by drawchange. Its dedication to providing art therapy for homeless children and raising awareness about mental health and homelessness is truly inspiring. While there is a considerable amount of work that goes on behind the scenes—often involving challenges such as occasional miscommunication and workload pressures—I have learned to navigate these complexities and appreciate the dedication required to make a meaningful difference in the lives of children.”
