President: Cheryl Lin

I am Cheryl Lin, it is an honor to be the president of Youth Art  Foundation. I currently work in a public health department as a medication safety and nutrition counselor. My favorite past time is doing fun things with my kids. I graduated from the State University of New York with a master's degree. I volunteered in three different avenues: I was a volunteered at a non-profit organization, as a nutrition consultant, and as a room parent for ten years. All three have been enriching and valuable in the development of my career, lifestyle, and personality. Everything I experienced helped me understand the value of offering your own time to help others.
