The reason this program was enacted was to help fund the AP Art students of Suttons Bay High School to be able to go to New York City for the first time every - all funds for the trip are student produced without any help from the school. For all of the years prior to this one the students could only afford to make it to Chicago and although it is a great experience the whole point for the students to travel to another city is to explore different motivations and ideas that they might be interested in.

Krafty Kids is a non profit organization in Miami, Florida. Our group consists of four high school freshmen, but new members are always welcomed. We believe that every child should have a memory of making something creative with their own hands, because everyone deserves to enjoy their childhood. We plan out and preform activities with the children in Miami's hospitals and we also donate money to St. Jude Research Hospital.
Krafty Kids began as a class assignment but has turned into much more than that, and we need your help to help make our dream a reality.

I recorded 100 books onto CD's for the kids at my local homeless shelter. I also held five craft nights with my favorite books where I read the story aloud and did a fun craft with kids. In addition I ended up donating over 400 books to the shelter's library

While on a trip to Argentina last year, Blake had a vision to put shoes on children's feet around the world. To date, TOMS Shoes has given away 10,000 pairs to children in Argentina and is preparing to give 50,000 pairs in South Africa.
Style Your Sole is a great time for you and your friends to get together, express yourself through your own designs and support a good cause. Whether it is the theme of your party or a community building activity (youth group, sorority, birthday party), you and your friends are putting shoes on children’s feet somewhere around the world.

Do Something, Brooks! sponsored a "Twice as Nice" recycling contest. The challenge to the entire school was to create a work of art, a game, toy, craft, or anything else from recycled, reused materials. The goal was to think about and learn ways to reuse or recycle materials, instead of throwing things away. We challenged the school to go beyond, stretch their imaginations and inventive skills. At least 50% of the project had to be made of recycled materials. Entries were displayed in the LMC for a week.
