100% of all your money goes towards the care of extreme rural families in Rural Isolated Villages in Africa.

As I spend much time living with the Kambari tribe, I get to know first hand the challenges they face each day just to survive. I also have the privilege of capturing not only hunger, sickness and often death, but the more happy occasions.

This is Grace, and when I first met Grace in April 2007, she was suffering from Chronic Malnutrition. This was taken in December 2007, and the difference is wonderful.

We as a Charity depend on People like yourself, who donate time in Prayer and Finance to help us provide help and support for Grace and many others like her.

I thank you all so much for your help. Without those who give towards the Mission, we just could not do it.

Donate some of your art and save a child’s life!

    This little girl’s eyes are surely the ‘windows to her soul’, although we know there is only One who sees into and knows her this deeply and well.

    And he loves her.

    I almost feel as though your camera has taken on his personality and perspective, as though the lens of your camera are his.
    Maybe that is because it is your very great love and dedication to children such as Grace (what an absolutely perfect name!) that is revealed in your brilliant capture.

    The clarity and colour are simply mindblowing.

    God bless

Please pray for Grace and all the children, plus me and the mission. Please do what you can to help. No matter how snmall you may think your effort is, It does make a difference.

    Oh my, those eyes are haunting…..
    I look at my own two children sitting here, who have no idea of the life this little girl has lead…... and wish there was a way I could give at least ONE child like Grace, a life here with us, where although my family are living beneath the australian definition of the poverty line, we truly are wealthy people by comparison and rich in the ways that matter!

    TREVOR IRWIN

    Jolie, Grace was very ill with fever and Intestinal worms. As you know I and the small mission team here and in Kujama have little funds, but we give God thanks that We did secure medicines to help her, and as g=from 23rd August, 2008, she has made a full recovery. I will be heading down to her village when I return to Africa.

    It will be raining season and the rivers rise fast, so I do pray we can get to see her and all the children. I will keep you and all informed of progress. We still need $500 to purchase enough medicines to treat all the children, But God is good and I believe we are going to get this before we head off on 9th October.
