Second, GNW brings multi-disciplinary professional and academic credentials to complement the GNW Charities' own professional expertise in applied field work approaches by consulting, and through public health education and promotion. Third, GNW develops quantitative and qualitative research to provide epidemiologically and methodologically sound statistical research to enable GNW Charities to write scientifically-supporTed Grant proposals. www.geeknerdwonk.org

(dynamic arts and leadership education for under-resourced youth), Healing Arts (in-hospital performances and workshops that complement the healing process), and Community Arts (events that raise awareness and funds for humanitarian causes, and projects that dismantle barriers to arts accessibility). Each Sing for Hope project is defined by the volunteerism of professional artists and our belief in the transformative power of the arts.
