Addie, a therapy dog, who works alongside owner, Amy Hicks to help children in crisis, aids in children's grief therapy and is a local favorite at school programs is one busy dog! Normally an elementary school visitor, she made her way to Cleveland High School recently. Amy Hicks and art teacher, Colin Cambell partnered together to create art that will benefit local children's programming offered by Helping Paws and Healing Hearts. Cambell's Cleveland High School art students and Hick's wildly popular therapy dog, Addie have created 50 canvas art pieces.
Those pieces just went on sale (January 15th) and can be viewed and purchased at local businesses. Helping Paws and Healing Hearts will receive 100% of the proceeds collected from this sale. The proceeds will help further projects they coordinate for local children including their upcoming grief camp.
The students painted the backgrounds and assisted Addie as she added her paw prints to the paintings. Art collectors, dog lovers, children's advocates and others in the local community will want to find their way to the following businesses to help support this amazing organization. Prices range from $10 to $50.
