OverviewThe Memory Project is a charitable nonprofit organization that invites art teachers and their students to create and donate portraits to youth around the world who have faced substantial challenges, such as neglect, abuse, loss of parents, violence, and extreme poverty.
These portraits help the children feel valued and important, let them know that people care about their well being, and act as meaningful pieces of personal history in the future. This is an opportunity to creatively practice kindness and global awareness. MaterialsColored pencil, photos and information packets, ruler, pencil, eraser, and 9x12 paper
