Chelsea's Charity...Where "Art Is A Start" for Everything! 🎨❤
Chelsea's Charity is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization devoted to providing art supplies and art lessons to children. Together, we can support children's social-emotional and mental health development thru art!
We have an updated link to our amazon wish list with some of the supplies we need to keep making art kits. We will also have a list for our new art cabinets we're installing in different communities!
If you'd like to help with postage and other expenses, feel free to visit the "donate" section of our webpage :-)

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR WORKING WITH US! THIS IS AWESOME!

What We Do
Chelsea's Charity officially kicked off when Chelsea asked her guests at her 10th birthday party to bring art supplies as a donation in lieu of gifts for herself:-) Chelsea has a desire to support children and help them know that art is a start to healing, expression, communicating and so much more!
Huge thank you to those who have contributed already; it means so much to Chelsea! Keep us in prayer as we embark on this exciting journey! #ChelseasCharity
A Child Helping Children
Social-Emotional Development With Art
Chelsea started out wanting to provide her homemade art kits to children that may not have access to art supplies or children that have gone thru a traumatic experience. She wants to help support the social-emotional development of as many children as possible because "art is start!" Chelsea assembles art kits for children with various supplies donated to her throughout the year and includes a personal note from Chelsea in each kit😊
Teaching Art Lessons
Not only does Chelsea make art kits, she also teaches children some of her favorite art techniques! She spends time working with children on special skills and even teaches one of her favorite skills to use when creating characters called...the "Chelsea Eyes".👀
Art Helps and Heals
One of our main causes here at Chelsea's Charity is teaching children how to use art to help them in their every day lives. Research shows that you don't have to excel in art for it to help with your development. You just need access to the materials...our main goal😊🎨
Meet Chelsea
Chelsea has loved art since she was old enough to hold a crayon. She also sincerely loves to help others, so Chelsea's Charity was a great way to combine her two loves to support her peers! She is looking forward to teaching the value of art to many children worldwide.

Chelsea's Charity places a strong emphasis on cultural competency and humility, recognizing the importance of embracing diversity and creating an inclusive environment for all individuals. We understand that cultural competency is not a one-time achievement but a continual process of learning and growth. Here are some ways in which our organization demonstrates and prioritizes these goals across various dimensions:
Continuous Dialogue and Feedback: We encourage open and honest communication among our volunteers and board members. This allows individuals to express their experiences, concerns, and suggestions related to cultural competency and inclusion.
Collaboration with Community Organizations: We actively collaborate with community organizations and advocacy groups that focus on promoting diversity and inclusion. By partnering with these organizations, we gain valuable insights, build relationships, and contribute to initiatives that support underrepresented communities.
By demonstrating cultural competency and humility as priorities and ongoing efforts, our organization aims to create an inclusive and equitable environment where all individuals feel valued, respected, and empowered to contribute their unique perspectives and talents.
