The Eastern Iowa Arts Academy is a non-profit in Cedar Rapids, IA. We are currently collecting donations to help purchase supplies for art bags that will be given to K-12 students at no cost. The bags will contain items such as paint, canvas, and drawing supplies in hopes of keeping their creativity flowing during such a trying time in our country and around the world. We started with 20 bags that were funded by a grant from the Variety - The Children’s Charity of Iowa. Those bags were gone in less than two hours! Since being featured on KCRG-TV9 the morning of March 25th, we've had over 50 additional requests and we would love to fulfill them all! That's where this fundraiser comes in. We anticipate requests to keep pouring in as word spreads on social media and we want to ensure we are able to provide a bag for any student that requests one. Please, share this with your friends and family so we can continue to provide some color in these kids lives.
