Dear Joe,
A BIG thank you to you and your fellow ArtVndngMchn artists for your generous donation from Series 1 to MERCYworldwide. What an impact you have had on the 100 children at the Real MERCY School in Okobaba, Nigeria: one of the poorest floating cities in the world!
ArtVndngMchn Series 1 funded the International Day of MERCY event last weekend for 100 children and 60 parents. We were able to purchase the necessary items to help launch the new meal program at the school. The nutritious meal we provide every child every day at school may be the only meal some of these children have throughout the day. Thank you for supporting the children and for making this event incredible.

MERCY Ambassadors prepared the meals for the children and parents during the event. The children were so excited. And the parents were so grateful to witness their children receiving a quality education in a safe, nurturing environment.
The children shouted for joy!
The funds from ArtVndngMchn Series 2 will be used for the continued support of the children at the Real MERCY School, as well as The MERCY International School in Jacmel, Haiti, considered to be the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere!
Thank you for your support to create opportunities for all these children and their families to live better lives!
Respectfully,
Nick Bordieri
Executive Director
