Children’s creativity is their superpower
Few things on earth are mightier than a child’s creativity. From drawing a
picture or drawing up a road map to their dreams, a kid’s imagination is limitless when nurtured and
encouraged. It can help them escape the stresses of daily life or find resourceful solutions to some of
their biggest challenges. It can even help them navigate a path out of poverty.
Art activities and other creative exercises are a cornerstone of ChildFund’s programming for children around
the world, helping kids imagine a better future for themselves. For $13 a month, you can support programs
that help children become the architects of their own lives by teaching them to draw not just for
fun, but for hope.
And, for every month you donate $13, we will add your name to a weekly cash prize drawing
for $500! We will also provide $10 for 20 additional winners each week. Donate now and give a child the
priceless gift of support for their creativity.
The luck of the draw – and the power of creative expression
It’s true: The children we serve didn’t get the easiest hand in life. They are faced with very real, often frightening challenges that
can make even ordinary childhood experiences hard to come by, like having enough to eat, going to the doctor
or just feeling safe in their communities.
ChildFund’s programs focus on helping children access the things they critically need to survive and thrive:
nutritious food, clean water, education, protection from violence and so much more. Worldwide, we also
connect kids to opportunities to express their creativity, which helps them build self-confidence and
resilience to the challenges of poverty. When children express themselves through art, stories, drama or
simply building deeper connections with their families, communities and other children, they undergo an
important process of externalizing their internal world. This is excellent practice for transforming the
future they want for themselves into reality.
