All works by Rose Tinted Illustration
I've been overwhelmed by the generosity of friends and family that have sponsored me to do the Mission 48 famine. As promised, I have been working on the illustrations to send out to anyone who sponsored me more than $15. These are all original works and are a little way to use my talents to help a greater cause.
So far I have raised over $600.00 (NZD)! That is going to go a long way in planting Moringa trees in Cambodia & West Africa, helping Syrian refugees with their basic needs, contributing to a youth program in India and funding supplies for and occupational therapy clinic in Kasovo. The best part is I know that 100% of that money will be going to those causes!
I'm happy to say I made it successfully through the 48 hours of non-eating which trust me, wasn't easy. Especially when I had one of my dearest friend's dessert filled engagement party on the Saturday night! Torture I tell you! But soooooo worth it to know that a difference is being made. All because people decided to sacrifice their money to support me in my famine to make a world of difference.
On the Saturday morning half our group went out into Auckland City to hand out food to the homeless. This is something we do once a month, but it's harder when you know you can't eat. The other half of the group went to help a lovely lady who needed help with weeding out her garden. Simple acts that make such a difference because we gave our time, money and energy to help.
If you would still like to donate, it's not too late! Contact me through email at rosetintedillustration@gmail.com to find out how to sponsor me. I will send an illustration your way! x
