The Redeeming Ink Project is a powerful extension of the Skoolie Foundation’s mission to restore dignity, hope, and new beginnings for those who have endured trauma. Through the art of transformation, survivors of self-harm, abuse, and trafficking are given the chance to cover their scars with meaningful tattoos created by compassionate artists who believe in healing through creativity and connection. Each piece of art becomes a symbol of survival, strength, and renewal — a visual reminder that pain does not define a person’s future. Together with our partners, we are building bridges from trauma to a fresh start, one story, one scar, and one act of redemption at a time.

The purpose of the Redeeming Ink Project is to help survivors reclaim their confidence, identity, and sense of self-worth through the healing power of art. Many scars tell stories of pain, survival, and struggle — our mission is to transform those stories into symbols of strength and hope. By partnering with skilled tattoo artists, commu
