Painting with a Purpose,

Illinois, Illinois, United States Illinois, Illinois, United States

  • About the event

    Painting with a Purpose is an event that will join people together and give them something fun to do on a weekend that also has a purpose attached to it. Tickets would be sold and the proceeds would be given to a chosen recipeint dealing with hardships due to illnesses.

    Why should you sponsor?

    As a Cancer Survivor one of the issues I battled along with the disease was lack of resources for everyday living. I now have found I'm not alone. I want to help people who are diagnosed and not able to work anymore whether short or long term. Painting with a Purpose will raise money by hosting paint parties and using a portion of monies to present to the person with the illness. I would like to be able to do this once or twice a month. Recipients would be selected by conversations I have daily with people. I don't want it to be something people just sign up for. I want the recipient to know someone cares when they think no one sees them. And they are not alone. I need help with getting just the supplies like the table asked, paints, canvases and brushes. I would also like to be able to give the artist/orator of the event ( which would be different local artist each time) a small portion of proceeds just as a thank you for their time.

    I am a Cancer survivor. When I was going through the jiurney, I literally lost everything job, possessions, and home. It was the hardest thing to deal with especially whole battling a deathly disease with limited resources and funds available for my type of situation. Long application processes and limited funding became a headache. I started hearing similar stories and decided to do something. It may not pay off cars and houses but it will definitely help the recipient see that they are not alone and someone cares about there situatiin. They are not just an application for assistance.
