Request: Please donate to Living Arts.

My good friend, Mr. Chris Worth is an artist who I met at Marshall University  while I was majoring in Therapeutic Recreation. 

Chris is now the  Living Arts.

What I like best is that Living Arts also provides scholarships and assistance for those with disabilities so that art is accessible to everyone.

I feel like it is a wonderful program.

I’m asking: will you make a $50 donation to help suppoRT this wonderful program?
