Art for Charity Club Visits Jefferson School YMCA

The Tandem Friends Art for Charity group, a student-led organization dedicated to making a difference in their community, brought indoor and outdoor fun and enrichment activities to Jefferson School YMCA youngsters yesterday. Senior Sofia S, who started Art for Charity, and senior Sin F, one of a number of student athletes who came to lead outdoor activities, took a break from the fun to talk to Channel 19 reporters about why art, community and service matter at Tandem and to them. Check out the story here. The Art for Charity students worked with kids from preK up doing art activities, while the student athletes who participated led outdoor activities. There were some activities they did all together, including a danceoff that was fun for everyone, and there were plenty of rubber duckies involved. The youngsters and the Tandem students all had a great time having fun and spending time together.
