    Chicago Public Schools are experiencing a reduced funding due to the loss of ESSER dollars. They are struggling to find discretionary dollars to support critical art and music programming due to a $200 million gap in funding. This means students may lose art and music programming opportunities as schools are forced to prioritize core subject funding. Donating to our summer appeal and bidding on auction items will help Changing Worlds continue to offer free and low cost programming in schools where it is needed first.
