My daughter Sunnie (8 years old) was sitting at the table one Sunday – as she does- busy with art but this time it was different – she was creating beautiful pieces of art saying she was going to sell them on a table in our drive and that the money was going to pay for children in Africa –
Well I could not let such a wonderful loving and creative idea go to waste – so with some help from a friend, Sunnie now has a website selling art 4 africa. http://www.art4africa.co.uk The boys and the children at the ;little angels club have been busy creating too –
Please go and have a look and please buy a picture.
On Thursday I rang world vision and Sunnie, the boys and the children at the little angels are now sponsoring a little girl born on the same day as Sunnie and she is 8 too. It costs £18 per month to send her to school; she has never been to school. She lives in a very deprived area with barely any clean water and high HIV/aids risk. Sunnie and the children can write to her and send her photos and gifts and she can write back. When asked what she has always wanted she asked for a rag doll, so On Thursday afternoon we bought her, her first rag doll.
The little girl’s photo arrived this morning – her name is Fatou and I cried when I saw her photo – she is beautiful –
Please support Sunnie, the children and Fatou – we pray that this will be very successful so that we can help more children – for Sunnie and the children to be able to write to Fatou is wonderful – they will know what their art is achieving for a child less fortunate than them all they way across the world –
If any of you have websites – please link with Sunnie and please spread the word by forwarding this email – our children of today want to and can make a difference if and only if we as adults support them in doing so – also some “volunteer” help with updating the site would be great as all money needs to go on art equipment and the children we sponsor - or ideas or help on printing cards or t- shirts etc – thank you ….
Enough said really – no words describe how proud I am of Sunnie and her ideas and how proud I am of the beautiful pictures created by all the little angels.
Much love
