drawchange

at the Fatima School in Cartago, Costa Rica

This organization was started and is run by a friend of mine that I met during my first trip to Costa Rica.  Jennie was so inspired by the magical power of art on underprivileged kids that she whipped up her own little 501(c)(3) called Drawchange dedicated to aid global change by supplying the world's children with art supplies.

Pretty awesome, right?

I love the big guys, but I can't think of a better organization to support with a donation than a personally-inspired, grassroots one like Drawchange.  As if helping impoverished kids see the beauty of life isn't enough, Jennie also shows us all that one person is capable of.  Donate some money or some scissors.  At the very least, go and make their acquaintance on Facebook and find out more about what these guys are doing to keep art alive for kids.  Muchas gracias y pura vida!
