Spotlight Warrior: Wyatt

Nov 292010
 

I’ve been inspired by huge, amazing fund raisers with celebrities and fancy gift bags.  They raise thousands of dollars and get a lot of attention for their cause. Awesome! But truthfully, the events that inspire me most are the ones that are small, personal, and unique. I love events that make me say, “I can do that!”

On November 7th,  I went to 7 year old Wyatt Workman’s art show at a boutique called Dari.  Wyatt made an extremely impressive  claymation movie called “Save the Sea From The Trash Monster!” He wrote a book about it, too. He was selling his movie, his book, and his clay sculptures in support of Oceana.

The first thing I did when I got home was get out the clay! Wyatt is a true LemonAID Warrior. He uses his 7 year old creativity to make the world notice what is important to him. The Ocean!  Way to go, Wyatt. I’m a huge fan!!!

Art + Ocean = Wyatt’s Art Philanthro-Party

Wyatt loves art.  Wyatt loves the ocean.  He put it all together for an amazing art Philanthro-Party.  7 year old Wyatt asked his mom’s favorite clothing boutique if he could display his clay figures and have an art show.  Wyatt made an extremely impressive  claymation movie called “Save the Sea From The Trash Monster!” He wrote a book about it, too. He was selling his movie, his book, and his clay sculptures in support of Oceana.  The boutique set it up like a real gallery opening party and it was PACKED!

I gave my Christmas shopping list a LemomAID Twist to find a way to give presents to the people on the list AND give the gift of clean water to two families in Africa.  Here’s how I did it…

LemonAID Warriors is sending 2 bio sand water filters to Africa this Christmas. This will provide clean water for 2 homes in  Africa, where local well water is not available. The children in these houses will now be able to go to school instead of making the 6 mile hike every day to get water for their families. Here’s how I’m doing it…
2 Bio Sand Filters cost about $180.00
I have $400.00 to spend on 20 people from my gift list.
I spent $220.00 on 20 awesome Lemon scented soy candles wholesale price.

I made my own LemonAID Warriors labels and let the person know that this gift is sending water filters to Africa. I have a total of $180.00 left over in my Christmas shopping budget to send toBloodWaterMissions.com, which covers the cost of 2 filters!

I would LOVE to send more. So, if you would like to order a candle from me, I will make a $9.00 donation on your behalf. OR… take a look at your Christmas budget and get creative. Come up with your own version of what I did. Let me know what you did and I will feature you on my website.

 

A biosand filter is one type of water technology implemented in some of the communities Blood:Water serves. These in-home filters use sand and other biological material to turn contaminated, dirty water into clean, safe water. Using relevant, sustainable technology allows communities to be empowered to receive the best solution that fits their needs.
