Join us At the Helen Day Art Center, Wednesday, January 18 5:00pm – 6:00pm to view a display of original drawings by Syrian Children, and hear a brief presentation about this project. Purchase of each drawing for $100 will go directly to fund one year of education for a student.
Aid All Syrians is an organization that builds schools, provides health care and education for Syrians. 100% of donations go directly to the Syrian people.
Please RSVP to Monica Irauzqui at monica@yampu.com to let me know if you can make this event.
In addition, we will have a donation box for items needed for the Vermont Refugees. These items will go to another organization; http://refugees.org/get-involved/donate-goods/ . Shelley Crowder will be driving them to the donation site this week.
