Project Description
Students in Melanie McCartney's art class at Good Sheppard Elementary School reached across the ocean in friendship and shared self-portraits, crayons, and drawing paper for their Malian peers. African Sky transported and delivered the crayons and portraits to the Dissan Primary School. Volunteer undergraduate students from Emory University (Sam Sergay, Elyse LaFond, Rohit Malhotra, Jenny Jia) visited the Dissan school and distributed the donated crayons and portraits, one each per student. Southern Mali Program Director, Yacouba Sangare accompanied the Emory students and to explain the "self-portrait exchange" project. The Malian students used their new crayons to draw self-portraits and pictures, which African Sky collected to distribute to US students (through our US Schools Program).
