DaVinci's Children أطفال دافنشي
Art Therapy with orphaned young women, orphaned children & their caretakers.
This group of women were subjected to neglect and abandonment as children. Today they have difficulty finding a job or getting married because of a society that not only judges them but also labels them. 36 sessions of art therapy helped them build their self-confidence and self-love. Thank you to Shoman Foundation for sponsoring this cause and Al-Aman Fund For The Future of Orphans. for believing in Kaynouna
