a blog about being a lorax to the world. a lorax is anyone/anything that stands as an advocate. the lorax is literally a smallish, brownish creature from Dr. Seuss's The Lorax. He "speaks for the trees, for the trees have no tongues". the ending quote always resonates with my humanitarian efforts, "unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot; nothing's going to get better. its not."

Art Conveys All
Last quarter I was able to work with the Urban Ministry Center. A center that helps the homeless and poverty stricken people of charlotte. they have an arts division that allows participants to learn techniques and express themselves through art. i had an amazing time working with the teachers and people involved in ArtWorks 945. I hope to work with UMC again in the future and I'm so glad i could incorporate non-profits into my project.
