Visual and Creative Arts and S.T.E.M.

The Youth HELP Foundation champions programs in visual and creative arts and STEM education as powerful tools for unlocking the potential of young minds. By engaging children in artistic expression, scientific exploration, and hands-on problem-solving, these programs enhance cognitive development, strengthen creativity, and nurture the innovative thinking needed to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
The Foundation currently partners with the Edward Gartling Youth Center to support children through graphic arts design classes, providing them with skills that spark creativity and self-expression. We are also actively identifying additional partners to expand the implementation of Visual Arts and STEM programs, ensuring more children have access to these transformative learning opportunities.
Through equitable access to these experiences, we empower vulnerable children and youth to develop the skills, confidence, and curiosity that lead to lifelong success. Whether designing a piece of art, building a model, coding a program, or solving a real-world challenge, participants learn to think critically, collaborate effectively, and envision bold new possibilities for their futures.
