Assemble and/or Deliver Activity Kits- In person
Why: Story Tapestries has a goal to make sure 10,000+ youth and families as well as older adults have access not only to arts education but also arts activity kits. Often families experiencing economic hardships do not have the resources to provide school supplies, specifically art supplies to their students. Often older adults, especially those in isolation also have difficulty in devoting their fixed incomes to creative arts supplies.
What:
1) Combine art supplies (pencils, paper, journals sharpeners, erasers, markers, scissors, glue, etc.) into ready to deliver for youth, families, and older adults. Set up the assembly line and go.
2) Safely deliver activity kits to school sites and distribution centers.
Where & When: For assembly, we coordinate with you. Either at your home, your workplace, or another COVID-safe location, we will set up an assembly day where we bring supplies to equal a goal number of kits. For delivery, we coordinate between you and the distribution site to facilitate a safe drop off that helps us complete the supply chain.
Benefit to You and Your Team: Here is a physical task that not only helps us ensure engagement of the populations we support, but it provides excellent opportunities to take pictures and videos for social media, helping highlight the work we do, how you helped us achieve it, and bringing social capital to both organizations.
