Shit I do for fun.
Aug. 29th, 2011 01:00 am- Fundraising! Ever since getting back from Haiti, my friend Jenny and I have wanted to do something to help out the awesome kids at the Art Creation Foundation for Children.
LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THESE KIDS. When you show up at their school they'll swarm you with hugs and bright smiles and be super excited about your camera. They'll run off with your camera to play with it but if you so much as look like you might be leaving they'll run to you and try to give it back. They make gorgeous little papier-mâché birds and when your own attempt fails miserably, they'll help you out with it and show you how to do it right. They also created an epic mosaic wall downtown, and they'll take your hand and walk the length of it with you, pausing at the bits they did and pointing them out to you with huge grins. And when they get their little bit of food and clean water, they'll have some themselves and try to share the rest with you.
A lot of these 95 children are orphans and street kids, and ACFFC is their only chance at regular meals, safety and health care, an education, and a family. Please please please donate a bit to support them, I'll love you forever.

You don't have to donate $50, but if you do, Jenny and I will send you an 8x10" portrait she painted of one of the kids. Donate $200 to get all four plus a papier-mâché bird made by the kids.
Or just like our Facebook page or help us spread the word. Thank you in advance! ♥ - I also like to jump off 15 m / 50 ft bridges. Apparently.
