Art Gift Pack - help build a bridge for the Moken community <3

 

My friends need some help. They are Moken ‘sea gypsy’ indigenous people of the Andaman sea, and this particular group live in a village on the little island that has been my home in thailand. Right now there is no bridge to the village and despite the Moken being the original ‘water people’, having to cross the river on a raft in rainy season is challenging and unsafe for the young and old members of the community. It means access to the village is limited, and also means the kids are unlikely to go to school. Rainy season is just beginning in thailand, which means there’s a bit of a race to build this bridge as soon as possible. The new bridge will be a floating bridge - which moves with the tides, the monsoon storms, and will last for decades rather than the few years that a bamboo bridge would.

All profits from this will go towards building the bridge. This artwork pack includes:-

⭐️ 1 x ‘Mountains hold the music’ art print on Perlino Cotton paper

⭐️ 1 x ‘Island Surf’ blank Greetings card (with envelope if you want to gift it away)

⭐️ 6 x Artwork Stickers

Worldwide postage is possible. If you would like to donate more than this amount of directly to the cause without receiving any art, please use this Paypal account:- allforvillages@gmail.com
