this piece gives back

In an effort to do some ongoing good in the face of war, natural disaster, and what sometimes feels like a never-ending, heart wrenching stream of news of human suffering, I am going to add these prints (and all of the pieces from this close-to-my-heart series) to my growing collection of art that gives back. I'll be donating 25% of the proceeds from these works to World Central Kitchen from here on out. Right now, World Central Kitchen chefs are serving fresh meals to Ukrainian families fleeing war, in Brazil recovering from floods, and in Madagascar following Cyclone Batsirai.

"WCK is first to the frontlines, providing meals in response to humanitarian, climate, and community crises. We build resilient food systems with locally led solutions."
