I know what you’re thinking, you really want to help me out right now.

And by that I mean help out my “family.”

And by that I really mean help the people in the town of Grand-Bois, Haiti.

My step-cousin (yes, that’s a thing) Paige is going to Haiti this summer as part of her grad school thesis research. She’s studying art therapy counseling, and while I don’t have an exact definition, I think it’s exactly what it sounds like.

Maybe I should let her explain what she’ll be doing:

“I am going to be working with students from nearby schools as well as other community members on completing a mural at the community Health Clinic. Documentation of the process will be used to help support my research about how community arts can help highlight and support resilience, as well as build community and celebrate culture.”

Here’s where you come in. Supplies for this project cost money and you definitely want to give some, even if it’s just $1. Just click here.

Don’t think you have the cash? Skip Starbucks tomorrow. Think the donation process is hard? You can use your Amazon account and donate in roughly seven seconds.

Think this post needs a photo? Fine:

That’s a collection my siblings and cousins, with a kid, some girlfriends and a dog thrown in there. Paige is in the green/white in the back row. Hopefully you can figure out which one is me.
