We at LoPa Art are asked all the time why we do what we do and if we really think that we are making a difference. While in this day and time it is easy to be a cynic and wonder where your purchase dollars are supporting, we at LoPa Art, take our position as stewards of God's provision very seriously.
We are always brainstorming, discussing and determining where we can do things better and stretch our dollars further. It is not always that you are able to directly see how God uses your dollar to impact someone else. But if you've made a LoPa purchase in the last year,
let me introduce to you one of our artisans,
meet Dawit.
These works of art are made by one of our artisans in Ethiopia.
Dawit was an artist that we purchased from during our first buying trip to Ethiopia.
His paintings were such a hit that we purposefully tracked him down again this time.
As we approached his one room house, we noticed immediately that things were different at Dawit's than the first time we met him almost a year ago.
Dawit's house looked amazing, with a new room and electricity!
And both of those things were possible by YOUR purchases.
Dawit was so excited to see us that we all were teary.
The paintings shown above are still available and all proceeds
from LoPa sales go directly to fund our feeding program for the people of Korah in Ethiopia.
Thank you for your support of LoPa Art and the Christ we serve.
