How It Works
CoachArt Connect is a non-profit organization that matches chronically ill children in LA, the Bay Area, and San Diego with volunteer coaches who wish to teach kids a new hobby or skill. By working with these children, you will bring a sense of normalcy back into their lives and help them see themselves as artists and athletes, not just as patients. Read below to learn more about the volunteer process and how to get started! Please visit coachart.org/volunteer/ for more information and to sign up!
