Slam Out Loud
NonProfit Fostering Youth Voices Through the Arts
Slam Out Loud is a for mission non-profit that uses the power of performance and visual arts (like theatre, storytelling, spoken word poetry) to build creative confidence (life) skills like communication, critical thinking, and empathy in children from disadvantaged communities. We envision a world where children, no matter who they are or where they come from, are empowered to find their voice and experience the world through it. While we have long term, high touch programs with 50,000 children across India, our low-tech art-learning resources have brought the magic of arts to 4.7 million children across 23 Indian States and 19 countries
This project manifests a well-considered educational scheme. It builds up children's communication and critical thinking skills, and at the same time empowers them to speak up for themselves and to stand for what is right.
WINNER STATEMENTOur hearts filled with joy and gratitude at the news of having been selected. When Slam Out Loud began four years ago we couldn't have imagined that we'd reach here; a place where there is space for possibilities, where individuals and organisations alike offer such unwavering faith in our mission to empower children through the joy of the arts. Thank you for helping us make our dream a reality. A majority of the prize money will help us to sustain operation costs, including costs for programs development, and to design a curriculum that keeps children's wellbeing at the forefront. The prize will also enable us to continue bringing together like-minded changemakers who can contribute to our vision.
