18 THE CHARBONNEAU VILLAGER August 2019 Charbonneau Arts Association By ERIC HOEM Investing in the next generation of artists A n important question to ask of any 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization like ours is where does the money go and how much good does it do? The Art Department at Wilsonville High School reported how they used our donation this school year. Accord- ing to the teacher Christopher Shotola- Hardt, some of the monies were used to support student entries in regional Scholastic Awards. He credited our do- nation for having a record number of student entries and winning a record number of awards. Of the school’s 200 entries, 37 received the highest honors as Gold Key recipients. Another use made of our donation came in the form of buying materials for special projects. Christopher Sho- tola-Hardt reported: “We used the check from Charbonneau to purchase the materials for our space mural and nine characters in the spray paint master class (mural) and materials to create the set pieces for the robotics tournament we hosted. Those pieces are headed to the Evergreen Air and Space Museum. I will explain the fund- ing of the project in the credits at- tached to the mural.” In my mind, our donation to their program was money well spent!
