OUR SUPPORTERS

Without your desire and determination to further the cause of using comics and graphic novels in the classroom, we would have no reason to be here. If you are working in the comics or education industries and believe in what we're doing, please send us a note and we'll add you to this page. We'll even include a link to the work that you're doing or to your social media destination of choice if it helps to raise awareness about how important visual narrative is and how it can help educate kids about the world around them.
