HELP
FOR HAITI
| |
.
For all the children here who are given the gift of art,
colouring, painting, and learning to share and give to the greater
good, as
you sponsor them, they become the potential of the children with
nothing but hope and our help. Thank
you for sharing the gift for all to fulfill their full and rightful
potential. For the sake of vibrancy of colour in art,
inspired by the art of Haiti, that they may colour the world
again...

Feb. 12, 2010
Today is
the deadline for the Canadian government to match my
donation to UNICEF. I recently heard the sum of 113,000,000 was
raised in Canada.
For all the
children here who are given the gift of art, colouring,
painting, and learning to share and give to the greater
good, as you sponsor them, they become the potential of the
children with nothing but hope.
I thank
all who were the first to the front lines
of
Help and Hope for Haiti, to deliver the gift of your hard earned
dollars, to those who have nothing. We are all they have.
Together,
we have internationally attained 20% of my goal before April
11, 2010!
Thank You

Haiti needs HELP NOW!
When you turn on the television
and see how deeply the people there are suffering and you hear
the children cry from the pain of broken bones, lost limbs and
crushed flesh, it is very hard to go on without feeling the need
to mobilize yourself and do something.
I started creating this page as
a way of keeping the issue as much in the forefront as I can, to
inspire anyone who sees it to do anything they can to give of
themselves and their time, and to contribute to the network of
organizations on the front lines who are actively involved in
the process of relief, rebuilding and bringing healing.
It is my hope that this will
somehow lead into a fundraising campaign. As a Canadian
fundraiser, I need to take advantage of this great opportunity I
have to help.
Submitted by Feb. 12, 2010, for every Canadian dollar I am able to
raise, my government will match it.
In the Works:
Diana's Kids for Haiti
As an artist, I love the
Haitian aesthetic for vibrant colour in their art. My
focus is on the artistic side of fundraising. I have a
colouring book which I am bringing to life with the children in
my world here. I print out the pages, they colour them in,
we have hours of artistic fun, they learn new and exciting
things about art and life and now we are seeking out a new venue
for the pages we colour.
I had a meeting with 4 of my
kids regarding fundraising with our art and we came up with the
idea of creating beautiful coloured pages for an art auction
event which we would like to host and invite everyone we know to
come and buy their pictures.
The kids are on board. Now about the
grown-ups! If
you would like to sponsor one or all of Diana's Kids for Haiti, or
if one of your children is one of Diana's Kids for Haiti and you
wish to sponsor your child, please donate on line at our UNICEF
page. All the proceeds from our work will be donated to
UNICEF Canada.

Hands: The little hands in the photo below
belong
to Christopher, Age 4! He's mixing Funstuff paints!
Christopher recently discovered
 
how much fun painting can
be! He has lots of fun mixing the colours and
exploring the painting process over top of my colouring
pages with his brushes! It's okay if he goes out of
the lines. It's fun to learn how paints and brushes
work! He is working on a portfolio of pages which he
would like to use to generate donation money for UNICEF
Canada.
