streets or boxes
buildings & books
Subtle or dramatic support
shadowed or unmistakeable

The family needs between $1500 and $2000 before January 1 for back rent so they can reset the clock before another month of rent is due.

If you can spare $5 or $10, it could help them avoid eviction.

Enjoy these art challenges and have $5 or $10 to spare? Please help out one of our wonderful art challenge hosts and their family. They're at risk of getting evicted. Sharing is also greatly appreciated!
