DRC

DRC

mixed media

I used to have a pen pal/sponsored sister in the DRC through Women for Women International.  That is what inspired this painting.  I now have a sister in Nigeria.  It is an amazing organization that supports women survivors of war all over the world.  They equip them with the skills they need to survive and feed their families.  Many of these women have lost their husbands and several children.  They are so thankful to receive help and a letter from someone who cares.  Check out their website if you think you might be interested in donating or becoming a sponsor!
