Art Material Mountain

Art Material Mountain

Several weeks ago, Danica McLain, a two-time traveler to Zambia, a Connector Specialist, a talented artist, and a huge HealthEd Connect supporter, initiated an online program to obtain donations for art supplies for the schools in Zambia.  To date she's had over $2,000 donated for supplies!!  All of this for kids who think a #3 pencil is a REALLY big deal!!

This week Danica wrote, "I’ve ordered the first shipment of art supplies from the Art Room Aid project site, which came in yesterday! I’ve attached a photo of “Art Material Mountain” to give you a visual for the success of the project so far. Keep in mind the supplies that are unseen on the bottom- 10 pks of 240 pg construction paper, 2 class packs of 630 crayons, 20 packs of modeling clay…who knows what else! I’m so excited!"

All of you would-be travelers to Zambia, be forewarned that extra corners in your suitcase will be stuffed with art supplies for the foreseeable future.  The kids won't believe it!!
