Little Danya in South Sudan

I just saw a painting I did used as a logo and ornament for Harvesters Reaching the Nations (https://hrtn.org)! Please consider supporting their work on the behalf of orphans in South Sudan and Uganda this Christmas. You can even buy them chickens or a hygiene kit at https://secure.qgiv.com/event/shopgiftcatalog/store/. Merry Christmas!
