The Homeschool Legal Defense Association has a companion organization that comes along side homeschool families during crises and times of unusual financial need. These families might be faced with that unfathomable decision: to provide for the basic needs of their family members, or to continue homeschooling. The Home School Foundation seeks to help families to meet their financial needs and still continue homeschooling.
Right now, HSLDA is using art work from last year’s art contest as a fundraiser for the Home School Foundation. The young artists have donated their work for an auction with the proceeds going to benefit home school families in need.
The following came via email from HSLDA:
Contributions to the Homeschool Foundation for the artwork are tax deductible and will go to support the Special Needs fund.
The auctions end on December 31st, 2009 at 5pm EST.

If you have any questions, please contact us at: contests@hslda.org
I would encourage you to take some time to view the pieces available for auction, you just might find one that would look great on your living room or home school room wall, and in the process help a home school family in need.
