Our Impact
The Difference
Your Support Makes
Schools Supported Across
the Yakima Valley
Artos currently supports teachers and school staff at multiple elementary, middle, and high schools throughout the Yakima Valley through monthly recognition, classroom support, and encouragement.
Teachers and Staff Cared for This Month
From full-school partnerships to individual educators, Artos provides ongoing recognition and support to teachers and staff who might otherwise go unseen in their day-to-day work.
Currently Reaching Teachers and School Staff Goal
Today, Artos supports a small percentage of the teachers and school staff we long to encourage. There are many more educators who deserve to feel seen and valued. With your support, we can grow and reach them.
