Founder - President

Jenny -Jypsi Bea has been an active crafter for most of her life. Through out her life she has worked in various positions that helped her develop her skills and desire to start a non-profit that would inspire creativity in others because it was just that helped her walk through life.

She loves exploring different creative methods, finding ways to give life to items that seeming have lost their purpose and loves to restore their beauty.

The Impact Project was created due to the fact it was costing Teachers to use their personal funds to be able to teach in public schools. Building a mindfield instead of the landfill was a passion that turned into a mission.

She believes that there is an Artist in Everyone and works to encourage others to give it a try. The outcome is not what is important it is all about the journey.
