Providing Mobile Art Relief to the World.
Color Our World joined an array of local organizations supporting the University of Northern Colorado’s celebration of International Women’s Day on March 7th. The event featured booths set up by local organizations promoting education and the support of women. Students, faculty, and community members gathered after to view the screening of Girl Rising. The event was a huge success, and we had lots of people interested in COW, and supporting our mission!
The distribution on Saturday, February 15, 2014 was a huge success! Thanks to the efforts of five CSU students–plus board members Brian and Meagan!–we helped serve over 80 families with the gift of art. This number is more than double the number of attendees from the same event last year!
In participating in the “Children in Need” Event, by Homeless Gear, COW joined many critical organizations that provide much-needed services in a single location at “The Mathews House” in Fort Collins, Colorado. In addition to participating in art activities and receiving art kits, participants also received free eye exams, health screenings, pet food, haircuts, books, clothes, legal advice, backpacks, nutrition support, enrollment in Early Childhood, referrals to host’s programming services, and even balloon animals and face-painting!
Welcome to Color Our World (fondly known as COW)! COW aims to connect the working poor with a spirit of expression and freedom– connecting those who feel their world is small and hopeless to a larger world of possibilities.
