Brighten a Refugee Child's Day with the Gift of Color
I recently volunteered at a refugee camp in Eastern Turkey hosting Yezidi Kurds who escaped the war in Iraq. After meeting some of the children in the camp and seeing they didn't have much to do during the day, I decided I would collect art supply donations for them so that they could draw and paint. It's a fun and creative way for them them to process their emotions and feelings they can't otherwise express with words and to cope with the difficult circumstances in their lives.
Your generous donations will help me and my volunteers buy paint, colored pencils/pastels, markers, paper etc. and put in place an art program for the children.
Thank you so much in advance!
