Are you an artist with paintings or sculpture that you do not plan to sell, gift, or keep? 
Donate original art and sculpture of ALL kinds to Downsize for Diversity through the Boston Bridges Initiative, a 501(c) (3) supporting METCO groups across our commonwealth!
We come to you in our big truck and pick up all of your original art donations and give you an itemized, signed 501(c)3 tax receipt on the spot! 
You can drop off to us in Lincoln, MA too! 
The BBI then sells these artworks locally and all proceeds go to fund their work supporting METCO and other like organizations throughout the year. Call, text, or email Joanna Schmergel anytime to schedule a pick up at <a href="https://null/" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow">617-645-9059</a> or <a target="_blank" href="mailto:owenjoanna@yahoo.com" rel="noopener nofollow">owenjoanna@yahoo.com</a>

The Downsize for Diversity program was originally started by the 501(c)(3) organization, the Lincoln METCO Coordinating Committee, in Lincoln, MA, and raised $170,000 from 2017 to 2022. This was invested in a policy-driven endowment fund and has earned over $50,000 in investment income.
Since moving to the Boston Bridges Initiative in 2023 Downsize for Diversity has netted over $137,000 in art sales.
