5th Annual Art Aid for Tesfa Thank you so much to all who came out and
participated in the 5th Annual Art Aid for Tesfa - Art
and Wine Event! And to those of you who couldn't make
it, thank you for sending your support and
encouragement. We couldn't have done it without you.
Please enjoy this thank you video we've made for
you!
Many of you have asked if you can
still make a donation. The answer is YES! Here's how:
Follow this link:
http://www.tesfa.org/
and scroll down until you find the big red "DONATE NOW"
button (it's towards the bottom of the home page right
in the middle). Then click on it and enter your
contribution.
Remember, all it takes is $21 to keep one child
in school for one month. That's just $252 to educate one
child for one whole year.
Thank you again. I am honored to be a part of
such an amazing and generous community.
All the best,
Stephanie
ART. CHANGE. ONE ACT AT A TIME.
Art Aid for Tesfa is a division of the Tesfa
Foundation, a non-profit that provides early education
for Ethiopian children. Our vision is an Ethiopia
liberated from poverty by empowering its youth with
opportunities for whole-brain development. Our mission
is to help Ethiopian youth develop self-sustainability
by teaching them creativity while funding their
education.
WHY ART? Art is a tool for fundamental development: • Peer interaction • A sense of independence • Self-expression & self-esteem • Decision-making & self-evaluation • Develops hand-eye coordination • Sensory exploration of environment
WHY ETHIOPIA? • 42% literacy rate • No early public education • Lowest enrollment in sub-Saharan Africa • ¼ of population earns less than $1 per day • Average education reaches 5th grade level
