Who is Art for the Hearts Sake?

Art For Heart’s Sake is a social enterprise that seeks to raise awareness and encourage charitable donation through creative engagement.

Kids Company is a London based charity which provides practical, emotional and educational support to vulnerable inner-city children and young people suffering neglect and abuse. Many of the children they reach have experienced severe and multiple trauma; often living in chronic deprivation, with little or no support. The charity helps to restore trust and provide an environment in which kids can begin the healing process, using a support system that includes psychotherapy, counselling, education, arts, sports, hot meals, and a number of other practical interventions. The support Kids Company offers is tailored to the needs of each individual. They never give up, they do whatever it takes. Every pound that we raise will make a lasting difference to a child’s life, help return them to their childhood and offer the possibility of a better future.

This is a great opportunity for you and your little one to see amazing contemporary art and for a great cause. You have the opportunity to give a donation or bid on a piece of art you would like to have hanging in your home.
