My Gold Award Project

This page is dedicated to detailing my journey with my Gold Award Project.
__
My project is to help kids going through illnesses in these three categories (emotional, physical, and mental) find a new outlet to express themselves and help overcome their illnesses and hardships they may be facing. Art can be interpreted in different categories, such as (but not limited to):
1. Literature
2. Drawing
3. Music
4. Photography
5. Dance
6. Animation
7. Theatre.

With all these different types of art forms, each individual is bound to find one that he/she can relate to and use to help them overcome their stressful situations. This blog is only a fraction of my Gold Award Project, and it is to help people all over the world with the powerful healing qualities of art.

  1. This is one fantastic Girl Scout Gold Award project and collaboration......Music says everything about all our emotions, but especially with children who don't express feelings as adults. Keep going, this is so needed.
