We believe that every child should have the opportunity to explore their creativity and develop their artistic skills.

Social Entrepreneur
Hi there! I'm Bret Davis, a proud native of vibrant New Orleans. As a social entrepreneur, my passion lies in transforming spaces through pool renovations, property preservations, and e-commerce ventures. Yet, amidst the hustle, I've always felt a deeper calling. Growing up, art was my refuge, guiding me through life's challenges. It became clear to me that every young person deserves the chance to explore their creativity, regardless of their circumstances. Thus, I founded 'This Just Happens,' a nonprofit dedicated to providing art supplies to youth who may not otherwise have access. Join me in empowering the next generation of artists and creators!"
