ASAP is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization
… dedicated to making quality arts instruction accessible to low-income and underserved children. ASAP manages to do a lot with a little—our programs have significant impact while the organization’s annual budget stays under $200,000 and relies upon individual charitable contributions and grants from foundations, corporations and governmental entities.
Cash and in-kind donations to ASAP are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. Funds will directly support ASAP programming, giving hundreds of children learning opportunities in the arts and a safe, creative outlet for self-expression.
