“Take My Word For It!” Donates Over 30 Notebooks to LEAP

This holiday season we wanted to give back to the community by donating notebooks and pencils to *The Museum of Children’s Art’s (MOCHA) Library Education and Art Program (LEAP), which provides arts-based after school programming at four Oakland Public Library branches. For every “Like” we received on our Facebook page, we decided to donate one notebook and pencil to the organization.

We’re happy to report that we will be donating over 30 notebooks and pencils to celebrate the end of the drive!

Thank you all again for your continuous support, and Happy New Year to you and your families!

Weekly workshops employ a range of art and literacy activities that will build children’s academic, social and communication skills; increase their sense of accomplishment and community engagement; develop cultural awareness; and expose them to career and mentorship opportunities.
