I like to focus on fixing childhood as it has the most profound impact on how they perform as adults. My childhood was impacted by divorce and parental separation. By addressing the issue at the beginning, we may avoid long-term issues like crime, children soldiers and repeat of abuse cycle. I give back 10% of each sale to select charities. Below are some of the local charities I benefit via art sales.
