More Artists!

The kids absolutely love art!!  How did they learn to draw so well having never had tools before??  Has the talent always been there just waiting to be released through little finger tips??


Artist Alfred


Despite the long walk and the lack of shoes, Alfred loves coming to school every day because he doesn’t want to waste a day of learning.  He dreams of becoming a doctor in a community clinic so he can help those who are ill.  Alfred is a double orphan living with his grandmother, three sisters, and one brother.  He is a fabulous artist!


Mirriam loves to come to school and learn.  A single orphan living with her mother and little sisters, Mirriam doesn’t have much free time because she does the sweeping, cooking, bathing, and caring for her siblings every day.  When she does have free time, Mirriam studies her books at home so that one day she can become a teacher herself.
Artist Miriam



Artist Suny
Suny has attended the Chipulukusu Young Peacemaker’s School for one year.  Before attending this school, he attended a government school, but he lost his place there when he had to stop attending to work in his family’s garden.  He lives with this grandma, his mom, and two sisters, as his father has passed away.  Suny loves to draw pictures and wants to study mechanics because he loves to work on cars.
