Imagine Project Inc. 2011 The Imagine Project is a life-changing creative and performing arts program designed specifically for at-risk youth in homeless shelters and low-income neighborhoods.

“For the past 15 years, Bill and his incredible group of talented colleagues have been an integral part of our enrichment program at The Child Study Center a Staten Island and Brooklyn special needs preschool.

As director of the school, I had the privilege of working closely with Bill and his gifted staff of artists and observing the interactions with the children and staff. Theirs is a truly remarkable talent: they were consistently capable, through some brand of magic, of eliciting wonderful and imaginative responses from even the most withdrawn or delayed child. The performances that were presented throughout the year were a delight for all concerned. Parents got the opportunity to witness, many for the first time, their child singing, reciting, dancing and performing, where previously he or she was unable to do such things.

I am aware of no other organization that has dedicated itself more completely and successfully to helping the emotional and aesthetic growth of children of every background.”
