Who We Are
Drawn To Help began as an organization that takes professional cartoonists, comic book artists and children’s book illustrators to visit children in hospitals. We believe in the power of art, and give young patients free drawing lessons, fun autographed books and a cool pack of art supplies so they can continue experiencing the healing power of art long after our volunteers have gone home.
Our Evolution
For over a decade, we’ve served communities from our base in North Carolina. When Hurricane Helene hit, we knew that this was a moment that would change our community.
While we still run regular art programs in hospitals, we couldn’t ignore what was happening in our community.
Since September 2024, we’ve been providing food, blankets, warm clothing and other much-needed supplies to people in the hardest hit areas of this devastating event. And of course, we’re taking along art supplies and providing drawing lessons to children whose families lost everything in the storm.
