Courage Canvas
Our Mission
Courage Canvas is a student-led 501(c)(3) nonprofit seeking to transform patient care through compassion, creativity, and communication. Founded on the belief that healing goes beyond medicine, we aim to empower youth and patient communities, from art-based initiatives to health literacy advocacy. Through our various programs, we hope to bridge emotional gaps in healthcare and provide youth with the tools to lead with empathy and voice. By humanizing healthcare through artistic expression, public speaking, and health awareness, we hope to spark connection and compassion for patients and providers alike.
The name Courage Canvas reflects the heart of our mission. Just like how a blank canvas can become a powerful tool of freedom and expression, we hope to open up an emotional space for youth and patients. Meanwhile, "Courage" speaks to the bravery it takes to advocate for what's right and turn silence into stories of empowerment.
Our Approach
Courage Canvas was founded by a passionate advocate for healthcare community and patient support. As a hospital volunteer, our founder witnessed the struggles patients face in understanding health awareness and the stigma surrounding mental health. Through art and communication, she aims to uplift communities and provide a voice for those who may feel unheard or overlooked. Our founder's public speaking experience drives our mission to help individuals receive compassionate care and raise awareness about healthcare issues through various means.
