Horizons Atlanta at Woodward Academy: Silent Auction

 

CALL FOR ARTISTS: 

Horizons Atlanta at Woodward Academy is celebrating 10 years of closing the opportunity gap for underserved students in our community through high-quality academics and enrichment during a transformative six-week summer learning program.

 

Scholars enroll during Kindergarten and are with our program through high school building community and lasting bonds. During the summer, scholars participate in targeted reading and math remediation, engaging STEAM, and daily swimming lessons that lead to incredible growth in academics and confidence.

 

All proceeds of this event directly benefit summer and after school programming for the 2022-2023 school year at an average cost of $2500 per student.
