Niceville artist raises funds for CIC Kids

(Artful Things, Niceville, FL) – Local artist Charlotte Arnold in conjunction with Artful Things Art Gallery in Niceville donated $570 to help give a home to the abused, neglected and abandoned children at Children in Crisis.

Arnold raised the funds from a promotional contest that provided two 16 X 20 charcoal portrait custom drawings.  The drawings were won by Mary Jane Ross of Niceville and Mike Gunger of Tennessee.

According to Ken Hair, CIC President & CEO, “It really makes our children living at the CIC Neighborhood feel special when people from the community are called to action. This is only one example of Charlotte’s talented support and our Neighborhood is proud to display numerous pieces of her beautiful art.”

Children in Crisis, Inc. is a 501(c)(3), non-profit  charity of caring people working together to provide homes and establish hope to the abused, neglected, and abandoned children of our community. The Children’s Neighborhood is a beautiful facility, built by the generous support of our community.  To learn more about Children in Crisis call 850-864-4242 or visit www.childrenincrisisfl.org.
