Donating to Design Play Learn is investing in a future where people do not have to be left behind by the speed of our technological advances and innovation. Technology continues to advance without regard to people’s capacity for learning completely new skills, ways of thinking, or the speed at which we learn. Our aim, the totality of our vision, is to see to it that people have the foundation to learn the technical concepts, device operation, and programs of today in order to adapt to tomorrow’s technological advances.
We are structuring programs now to handle increasing our students’ comfort and understanding of computer systems, software use, and project architecture. This way, whatever they undertake in the future they will be well-versed in using the digital tools of their day.
At the same time, we also strive to instill logical reasoning and problem-solving in a project-based environment. We aim to improve our students’ critical thinking, time management, and collaborative skills. Thus, adding to a students’ overall chance for success in a future where more comfort with technology translates to more personal opportunity.
Help us drive our mission and vision for the benefit of our future designers, artists, architects, engineers, innovators, creators, and leaders.
Design Play Learn is a fiscally sponsored project of Marin Arts, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Contributions for the charitable purposes are made payable to “Design Play Learn” and are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.
Work towards setting up Design Play Learn as a nonprofit entity began in February, 2025 and we would not have gotten to the point we're at without the support of Marin Arts/Marin Link. As our fiscal sponsor, we are able to utilize Marin Arts' 501(c)(3) status to give our donors the documents proving their physical and monetary donations are tax-deductible. We are grateful that Marin Arts provides this opportunity to use to all of their projects. It has enabled us to bring forth our mission to our community in just six months; a much shorter timeline than we could have done on our own.
