Art Therapy Idea Wins Girl Scout an Award

Freudenthal Sales Group's Joyce McBriarty's daughter Erin (below) earned her Girl Scout Gold Award by coming up with a way to help families in her community by creating Project ArtBox, an idea to build an art 'library' and have an actual ArtBox containing supplies to benefit children and their families being treated at the Children's Hospital of Wisconsin, many of them staying at the Ronald McDonald House.

Erin has a goal that experiencing art will be a creative release for the children and families to de-stress during a very time of their lives.
