Arte Youth Program

Arte Youth Program empowers youth and their families by educating them about science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (S.T.E.A.M) through a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our value proposition offers long-lasting benefits in virtual and real-time domains. We designed our program to make learning new things an exciting experience by integrating industry professionals with families and their children while fostering relationships with schools and community resource centers worldwide through diverse and interactive activities. We emphasize hands-on participation and teamwork building through various creative and artistic opportunities, including mural projects, art auctions, and S.T.E.A.M workshops. Our innovative learning experience empowers learners with problem-solving skills and valuable tools to explore, discover, and interpret reality. AYP unlocks doors of creativity and imaginative discovery with creative output as the key to limitless pathways, boundless innovation, and lifelong learning.

AYP is founded by Reena Tolentino, a passionate artist and philanthropist, to help young leaders in our community reach their full potential.

Our Mission:

Arte Youth Program empowers youth and their families by providing access to S.T.E.A.M. education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Mathematics). Through transformative art healing, essential learning resources, and innovative experiences, we unlock creativity and vision in youth facing poverty. We aim to deliver backpacks, journals, and art supplies, and lead programs that nurture expression, opportunity, and long-term growth. 

​

We are currently seeking top notch partners to support this initiative. If interested in supporting our cause, we have sponsorship opportunities available. You can find more information about the different tiers and register for the event here:
