ART FOR EDUCATION
1—16 JUNE 2021
Eco-fashion house Ministry of Tomorrow and LA’s premiere avant-garde retail outlet, Church Boutique have teamed up with Christie's and Charitybuzz to produce “Art for Education". This is the inaugural fundraising event in the form of an online art auction to raise funds to cover Chema’s annual operating budget for 155 students ages 2.5- 14.
The school is located in the midst of Kibera, Africa’s largest urban slum. Chema provides quality education for some of Kibera’s most vulnerable children (orphans and children of single mothers without funds for school fees).
Iconic superstars have joined the humanitarian cause. The celebrities will personally design and donate a MOT 100% organic cotton canvas tote to the auction. The handmade vegan canvas totes are produced at MOT's factory in Nairobi, located just minutes from the Chema school.
Our goal is to raise $100k to cover Chema’s operating expenses for one year that also includes a nutritious daily meal for 155 students.
Celebrities include Naomi Campbell, Zoe Kravitz, Lenny Kravitz, Evan Ross, Laurie Lynn Stark, Lionel Richie, Paris Jackson, Usher, Halle Berry, Eddie Murphy, Maggie Q and more.
