A huge THANK YOU to everyone who invested in Upstream Arts during Give to the Max Day! Because of your generosity, it will only take $4,640 more in individual investments to fund an additional residency this spring in a classroom like Jean's.
Jean, who is one of our education partners, shared with us how much joy Upstream Arts brings to her and her students:
"I'm so excited to see students opening up and responding to Upstream Arts' activities, especially Travis, who uses other ways to speak than words. He has a huge smile on his face when he comes up for a turn."
The impact of genuine inclusion cannot be overstated- on students' confidence and social skills, on educators' ability to truly teach every student, and with each of us in our ability to connect to the full humanity of our community. This powerful work couldn't happen without you!
