About Us
Art Projects for Schools was established in 1997 and we are the leading provider of creative fundraising projects for primary schools. Continuously innovating, our most popular initiative, The Christmas Card Project, has transformed 220,000 artworks into 6 million Christmas cards in just the 8 weeks leading up to Christmas each year.
Ex-teacher and Founder of APFS, Dan Dickey, attributes this success to a simple ethos: “Art Projects For Schools exists to elevate the importance of Art in schools, give children hands-on experience in the design process, and generate vital funds for schools. We also understand the pressures schools face, which is why we’ve developed an online system that reduces 90% of the workload.”
Whether you’re a parent, teacher, art facilitator, PTA member, or art enthusiast, we invite you to explore our site to learn more about our fundraising projects and discover our creative resources. To date, we’ve helped schools raise an impressive £6.4 million through our projects.
