About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to host people or volunteers who are willing to promote or encourge art to the poor people in our community.My aim is to help children,youth,physically handicapped who are interested in art to achieve their dreams.

ABOUT ME

I had a disability while growing up ,which was stuttering/stammer .It took away my confidence,self esteem and pride as i was treated unfairly.
people laughed at me,teachers punished me and my family did not spare me at all by mimicking me.

I tried to communicate through art ,and express myself but again i was warned that it will not help me.
Being denied my interest affected me more as i really wanted to express myself ,so my life for 24 years was miserable life ,that i ended up searching myself.

When i went over my stuttering ,i decided to do something to help needy people who could be in the same situation as me ,that is why i started this organization for art to help the poor people who have talent in art but have no support in developing it .

PHILOSOPHY

Be a fool for five minutes ,but do not be a fool forever.
