Art for africa
Your purchase of art can be a wonderful gift to both your loved ones and orphaned teens in Africa.
A major portion of funds from each art sale goes to support the Northern Kilimanjaro Region Art School which teaches orphaned teens to become self-sufficient through their art talents. ABCD: Art Building Children’s Dreams is helping this school due to our shared belief in the importance of art in the lives of disadvantaged children, and in the hope that some of our own ABCD children will attend and acquire a meaningful and sustainable future.
Pickup is available. Shipping for all paintings $25 in Canada and the U.S. See item description for other shipping costs.
