Cleveland Youth Supply Drive

Happy holidays Cleveland IxDA members! Looking to spread some holiday cheer this year? Larissa Itomlenskis is doing some great work to teach user centered design in the Cleveland Public Schools, and she is working with Kent State's Cleveland Urban Design Collaborative to put together a supply drive for local youth this holiday season. Let's help out by donating some supplies, and a little inspiration to some aspiring designers!

Here are some of the materials that would really help them out:

 

Here are a few specifics for the wish list, available on Amazon:

• Canson 9-Inch by 12-Inch Extra Long Multi-Media Paper Pad, 60-Sheet
• Canson 11-Inch by 14-Inch Extra Long Recycled Sketch Book, 100-Sheet
