“Art is a fruit that grows in a man, like a fruit on a plant, or a child in its mother’s womb.” - Jean Arp

Mission:

Fruit of the Soul supports the preservation of music, art and nutritional education in San Diego. We believe that music, art and nutrition ARE the fruit of our souls. We believe the preservation of such in our educational system is necessary for our youth’s left & right brain creativity & growth.

At Fruit of the Soul, we seek local organizations working to sustain art, music and nutrition within our education system, as well as those in need of community support. We work with our beneficiaries to identify the financial need in areas of their program(s) that encompass our mission. We then strive to reach each collaborative fundraising goal and assist in the implementation of these programs through financial support and building community awareness.

About the Beneficiaries:

Monarch School:

Monarch School “Did you know that the average age of a homeless person in San Diego is NINE YEARS OLD? Today, THERE ARE MORE THAN 2,200 HOMELESS CHILDREN in San Diego and more than 300,000 nationwide. Together, we can change that. It’s a tough reality that not all kids are given the same opportunities.

Monarch School works closely with the community and the San Diego County Office of Education to change that. The school provides an accredited education to homeless and at-risk kids while caring for basic needs such as healthcare, food, clothing and personal hygiene. Your help can make a difference.” - monarchschools.org The Monarch School is a 501 3(c) non-profit organization (Tax ID # 33-0871354).

Olivewood Gardens and Learning Center:

Olivewood Gardens and Learning Center

Olivewood Gardens & Learning Center is located in National City. The gardens will be a destination for children from the surrounding urban community to explore the connections between plants and history, science, art, literature, math, and nutrition. Crop plants will be grown in a manner that would allow children and community members to actively engage in the production of organic fruit and vegetables. Harvested produce will then be used during nutrition classes, cooking demonstrations, and workshops which will be held on a covered patio area and outdoor kitchen (capacity 40) adjacent to the garden. http://www.icfdn.org/initiatives/crossborder/index.php
