CoachArt

CoachArt's mission is to create a transformative arts and athletics community for families impacted by childhood chronic illness. CoachArt improves social and emotional wellbeing by matching children with chronic illness to volunteer coaches who provide inclusive, free instruction that accommodates a child’s needs, instills confidence, and ignites lifelong passions. We are instating our innovative COVID-19 online service models as a permanent program option to ensure that immunocompromised children will always have safe opportunities to learn.

Through technology and innovation, the CoachArt Matching Platform will revolutionize the process of matching potential volunteers with students impacted by chronic illness, from a month to days.

The CoachArt Matching App will modernize the way chronically ill students are paired into arts and athletics mentorships and expand CoachArt’s transformative community to include exponentially more families. Our algorithmic matching app will reduce 99+% of the overhead currently needed to make a successful matches, from an average matching process of 8 hours down to approximately 5 minutes. In two years, that will scale annually to provide a projected 3,000 more students in Los Angeles.
