ART AUCTION - to Benefit ONE HOME MANY HOPES

One Home Many Hopes is a nonprofit that provides housing and education for orphaned girls in Mtwapa, Kenya.  It was not created, not is it run, by the government; it is an independent home.

Some of the girls have lost their parents to AIDS, causing them to become instant orphans -- and parents to their younger siblings while still preteens themselves.

The long-term vision of One Home Many Hopes is to support the girls through college.
