Dream-fulfulling ¢@ Charity Sale

Charity Sale
Vivianna and Xiao Yin are the founders of Swaziland Art Educational Project. In order to raise money for the project, they held a charity sale on March 29, 2020 in Taoyuan. On that day, the teacher and us paid a visit to this charity sale in Taoyuan by train.

Charity-sale

Setting up the stand

At the stand, we saw a variety of Eswatini-based products displayed. They sold postcards and notebooks with kids¡¦ paintings printed on the cover or pages within. Also, they sold stickers using images of lovely faces of kids in Eswatini.

Notebooks

Postcards

We also interviewed Vivianna at the stand and she introduced some kids¡¦ artworks to us and shared some stories behind these kids. At the stand, they also provided the service of body painting and we couldn¡¦t help giving it a try. First, we picked a picture we liked. Then the helper at the stand magically recreated it on our arms or hands. The picture stayed on the skin for about ten days, and it looked like a real tattoo. It was so cool.

Interviewing Vivianna

Interviewing other volunteer

Paying a visit to this charity sale helps us know more about kids in Eswatini. Compared with their lives in Eswatini, we learn to appreciate and cherish what we have. We admire every member in Swaziland Art Educational Project and hope in the near future, we can offer our help to people in need like them.
