Over the years, Raw Art Works has become a second home for hundreds of at-risk youth. On any given afternoon you will find kids shoulder to shoulder with RAW staff, building verbal and artistic skills to carry into all parts of their lives; skills that make them stronger and more clear about who they are and who they can be.

Our kids tell us that RAW's success is all about our putting the awe in art making and an undying commitment to care. These young artists understand that we expect and depend on their best and they find comfort in knowing that we are always here to guide them through the worst. Please take a moment to read how RAW has been transforming lives for over 15 years.

Success Stories
RAW loves kids and kids love RAW! Whether they are seven years old or seventeen, each child who walks off the elevator at RAW knows they will find an adult who wants to hear about their day and ready to help them sift through choices, and to help them feel they are connected.

How We Use Your Gifts
RAW faces the wonderful challenge that for every new child who comes to RAW, there is another child who has yet to discover they too are an artist. With more kids to serve, we are reaching out to individuals, foundations and corporations to support the growth of our programs.

The Benefits of Giving
By giving to RAW, you know that you are helping to transform the lives and futures of the amazing kids who are the heart of this organization. But there is more! When you join RAW's family of donors, you'll also be joining a committed and well-connected community who understands that youth from all walks of life have the potential to be great.
