On my neighborhood walk with sidekick Hurley (the awesome dog I’m taking care of in Portland), we happened upon the Children’s Healing Art Project (CHAP). Fay, and the other lovely staff members, invited us in and shared that CHAP exists to bring the healing power of art to children and their families in crisis. The big fundraiser at the end of the year, CHAPlandia, is not your typical black-tie extravaganza, Fay explained. The paper crane table decorations are just an inkling of the colors and glitter and sequins that will adorn the event. What a heart-warming discovery today! I’m grateful for such amazing, creative outlets for kids and families and the people who staff and support such endeavors!! http://chap.name/ See More
