   Today marks 1 month since nearly 300 girls were kidnapped from their dormitories- in Nigeria- because they wanted an education- because their parents believed in education for their daughters.
 
     Today also is our online auction in support for these daughters, sisters, granddaughters,nieces.So that girls/women may also have the education that they deserve-the right to reach their full potential.
     Fellow artist and friend, Jessica Sporn put out an online call to artists everywhere and over 60 artists-humanitarians responded with amazing art for this auction. All proceeds from the generous donations will go to Girls Rising.

                                This is my piece I have donated for the auction-"Mother's Love" 

You can find this as well as over 60 other fabulous pieces of art all donated by theses wonderful artists
You can also visit them at their blogs -their links are listed below 

The auction starts today at 7:00 am -
 Please visit! Check out all of the beautiful art and maybe bid on an item or two! or if you'd rather, make a donation. Every little bit helps!! Thank you ")
