As part of a vow and a deeply inspiring and hopeful dream-vision behind my art and life, I continue to pulse/donate and distribute 10% of my income from all art sales and commissions to help support/sustain and expand as many better world initiatives and organizations as possible. This is done with an awareness that I am one of many, connected across time and space.
With this year of such Challenges and wake-up calls to our shared humanity, it is my hope that we are evolving greater CLARITY and 2020 VISION in how we can and must co-create better benevolent support networks across the globe. May we heed the even stronger need to #FutureNurture an ever expanding multitude of initiatives that will help us sustain a better and more compassionate and peaceful present and future for All!!
I remain committed to Cultivating faith and determination in the steady accumulation of small actions and threads of empathy. The dreamvision showed that it is not the amount donated but the connection and care we pulse and the intricate support networks we grow through this. Share what you are able.. but do share. There is something greater than the sum of the parts in the networked circulation of all our hearts connected and constantly reaching throughout our planet wherever needed. It is a vision of improving resilience and health on Earth.
Please take a look through the list and join me in co-supporting any of these important causes that you might also resonate with or adding some to your own 2021 FutureNurture WishList! Together we can do So much more. May we become a nourishing rain of support for each other and all the seeds we want to grow. Please use the 10% Club Community page on Facebook to share any and all causes and initiatives that you believe in and any inspirations in that direction, I'd love to hear them. Looking forward with determination to continually evolving new ways and collectively nourishing more in 2020. Thank you all who pulsed care this year in so many ways...thank you so much to my friends and collectors, to all these nonprofits, staff, volunteers and social movements and to everyone creating and crowdfunding new ways to better support each other and our shared world. <3
