Earth Day Art Exhibition featuring work by local artists! Hosted by Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Phoenix. Showings are happening every Sunday from 11:30am until 12:30pm. A portion of ALL SALES will benefit AZ Friends of Foster Children Foundation’s Keys To Success Program. Purchase work at the showings up until the 21st of May or email art@phoenixuu.org
WHY KEYS TO SUCCESS: The goal of Keys to Success is to provide career development services for youth aging out of foster care that lead them to discover their potential and a pathway to living wage employment. Each year approximately 900 youth leave Arizona’s foster care system without families and the opportunities they need to help them succeed. As a result, they are more likely than their peers to drop out of school, become parents before they are ready, experience homelessness, or end up in jail – costly consequences that affect us all. Once enrolled in the program, participants work with a team that helps them:
- Identify short and long-term career goals
- Prepare for and secure employment
- Identify and complete education/training that aligns with their career plans
- Develop personal and independent living skills
- Connect to partnering organizations that provide additional services or resources.
