Project details
What we need
- An easily understood visual aid that communicates complex information
- A high-resolution version of the Infographic in the Organization’s preferred format
What we have in place
- We currently have an existing infographic that is a source of information, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have significant data, testimonials, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,212 , allowing us to serve more children struggling with domestic violence, homelessness and chronic poverty. It will allow us to make a stronger, more comprehensible case to funders and in turn serve many more children.
The Time In Children's Arts Initiative provides life-changing, arts-immersive opportunities to very young, disadvantaged public school children in seriously under-resourced communities. Band-aids are not solutions. It is imperative to be able to show the urgency of working with our country's youngest, most disadvantaged children. With your help, we can make the case for sustainable and systemic change, dramatically moving the needle forward on all of our children's lives and learning.

Our mission
The Time In Children's Arts Initiative will transform the lives and learning of chronically disadvantaged public school children, ensuring that equality, opportunity and access - to the arts and through the arts - become staples of public education.
What we do
The Time In Children's Arts Initiative has worked, since 2006, to transform the lives and learning of New York City's youngest and most at-risk public school children. An awardee of the renowned Maxine Greene Foundation for its groundbreaking work in arts-education, supported by the New York Community Trust and The Catalog for Giving, Time In's tripartite aesthetic, intellectual and social-emotional programming - provides a powerful antidote to the debilitating inequities that children living in high-risk, chronically impoverished communities struggle with daily. An ongoing part of the normal school day for hundreds of New York's most disadvantaged public elementary school children TimeIn recreates the Best of NY, HiArt! program, which for 20 years has served the children of some of the world's most privileged families -- from David Bowie and Hugh Jackman to Rupert Murdoch and Mort Zuckerman - as well as in residencies at The Hollingworth Center for Gifted Education (Teacher's College), and the Speyer Legacy School for exceptionally gifted children.
Beginning with 30 kindergarteners from Harlem's failing Family Academy in 2006, TimeIn was founded on the belief that life-long learners and leaders emerge not from punitive time outs, but from effective participation in the real world. Every child, regardless of socio-economic background is entitled to a thoughtfully crafted, arts-enriched education in which each individual child's talents and needs are recognized, and the support for greater creativity, intelligence, self-esteem and a brighter, better future is more than just a promise.
