Use Art To Help Haiti!

Haiti Houses

Art teachers Ann Ayers and Ellen McMillan started a project called Haiti Houses to help raise money to help those who were affected by the terrible earthquake. Instructions for creating Haiti Houses are on their website.

Once your students build the houses, they may sell them and donate the money to a charity that directly helps Haiti. Ann and Ellen started this project and made a website for it in September before the earthquake struck. There are written directions and a mini-movie to see how to create the pins/magnets, but of course, like all projects, you can put your own spin on them. They sell them for $5 each.

Their students are selling them at school and then at the local shopping area on the weekend. They plan to donate the money to Food for the Poor. They have links to charities on their website.
