Your Support Matters
“I have continued to volunteer and donate to this organization because I not only see the importance of gaining job training and vocational skills, but how SAC does this through building meaningful relationships with the youth that they serve.”
-Jamie
"My passion for art and its importance in my life is what led me to volunteer at Sanctuary Art Center over 15 years ago.”
-Jamie
For over 21 years, the Sanctuary Art Center has been dedicated to providing opportunities for homeless and underserved youth to participate in life-changing creative experiences, empowering thousands of young people to find employment, enter college, and secure permanent housing. In return, they have taught us countless lessons about humility, privilege, and perseverance.
Each year we offer a variety of paid internships designed to prepare our graduates to enter the workforce. This year, more than ever, workplace environments have shifted, becoming more virtual. Therefore, teaching our young people how to use technology is paramount. In order for our interns to succeed, we need your help in getting them access to proper equipment, computer applications, and wireless connections that many of us take for granted. Please consider making a donation to help get technology in the hands of those who need it most.
Thanks to all those who competed and donated!
Friday, August 20th, 6-9 p.m. Blue Ridge Park
