Art Supplies

Every kind of giving is valuable. In-kind donations sustain our project and program costs and allow us to more fully support our mission. Every dollar saved through an in-kind donation can be applied as an investment towards the well-being of our students, families, and those we serve in our community.

From art supplies to children’s toothbrushes, to gently used kids’ clothing, your in-kind gifts helps our little learners and their families. Essential supplies are always in demand. We are also in need of art supplies as we go through these items at a rapid rate with our arts-infused curriculum.

Please contact our Director of Development Mariah Roady at (816) 994-5432, or mariah.roady@uicskc.org if you have any questions or to schedule a drop-off of donations. Thank you!
