Story

Engaging in the creative arts is proven to benefit mental health and is an effective way to hear from children about their experiences, particularly on difficult topics.

The CHAMPIONS Project works to advocate for children's rights and gives them a voice through a variety of mediums, including art, music, and theatre. By donating, you will help children, who are often overlooked, share their concerns, hopes, and ambitions.
