Wednesday, November 11th, 2009 4th Charity Winner: The Foundation of Coloring Away Pain (coloringawaypain.com)
Mission Statement: Dedicated to bringing playful resources to children dealing with difficult life situations. By addressing issues such as bullying, death of a loved one, a deployed parent, or a natural disaster through the use of animal characters and easily digested stories, children often are able to open up and express themselves. The coloring books each encourage a child to explore a subject with the animal characters, answer thought provoking questions, and draw freely in addition to the standard coloring activities. Coloring Away Pain originally began in response to the Hurricane Katrina disaster. Now, Coloring Away Pain has over 15 titles in publication and has been translated into multiple languages.
