Sponsor A Free Arts Day
Free Arts Day sponsorship is $2,500. Free Arts Days allow children in a residential facility to experience a one-day festival of the arts. Individuals, service groups and corporations may sponsor this event.  Sponsorhship allows you the opportunity to provide a volunteer group for the day, the chance to help develop the Day's theme and projects and to see the joy of the chidren who participate in the Free Arts Day.  Sponsors are not required to provide the volunteer teams -- we have many Free Arts volunteers who can help support your group.


Support The Courthouse Programs
$1000 provides art supplies for one month at the Edelman Children's Courthouse. Free Arts volunteers lead children and often their adult caretakers in simple arts and crafts projects as they wait for their court hearings.

get well or memorial just call the office and we will send a personalized acknowledgement to the recipient to commemorate the occasion and your gift.

Check Your Company For Matching Funds
Your gift to Free Arts for Abused Children may be worth more than you think! See if your company has an employee gift-matching program, and then help us double your gift with a corporate match.

Have A Party
Host a party (birthday, graduation, anniversary, holiday or other special occasion) and ask your friends, family and colleagues to make a donation to Free Arts for Abused Children in lieu of gifts. Or just have a “crayon party” for any reason, with the price of admission being a bag of new art supplies for the kids.
