Dear Beautylicious. Have you ever wonder how the real world is. Real world
issues never ending thus affect most of child around the globe. Can you imagine
how these children facing the reality everyday (i.e. child abuse, child labour,
war, homeless) and live with it. We are blessed as our country (i.e. Malaysia) is
safe from war and our government is still able to rule the country in peace.
Despite of high cost of living, we are not enforcing our child for labour.
Furthermore, a community and society in Malaysia are very active in
providing shelter and place for the homeless and unfortunate child.
In conjunction with Ramadhan month i.e. ideal month to give,
contribute and share with the unfortunate, Esse Organic Skincare (i.e. an
eco-conscious skincare brand promoting a sustainable life) is organising an Art
Exhibition. With “Nature” as the theme, the artwork is painted by children aged
16 and below. These paintings came from few countries i.e. Malaysia, Singapore,
Myanmar, Hong Kong and South Africa.
With “Mother Nature” theme, you would notice that these paintings are more
focusing on the beauty of nature and its surroundings. They are taught to be
more aware with what we are facing now (i.e. pollution, trees cutting without
control, green house, etc) and develop love towards our irreplaceable mother
earth. I went thru all the artwork and was amazed with it. They are young and
talented. Young Picasso.
These are some of the artworks that amazed
me:-

Anyway Beautylicious, in order to gather more people and to be aware about this event, there are 3 ways to help them:-
1. Are you are blogger? you may blog about this event and request your fellow members to blog about it too. Do join The Butterfly Project Community to raise awareness via social media.
2. Sharing is caring - Do share about this event via any social media / internet channel
3. Change the Facebook Cover - In order to make people alert and aware about this event,
Hopefully by doing all these three ways or any of it, it could help to bring people to the fund raiser so
that the children's painting would be seen and maybe bought for a good
cause! Proceeds of the painting will be going to the SHELTER, a shelter home for abuse children.
Until we meet again in my next post. Stay Beautylicious inside out.
