The Bigger Picture
Emily and I wanted to create our Genius Hour, Giving Growth Jewelry, to give the amazing opportunity of an education to a young girl in Kenya. The reason we specifically chose Kenya as our directed area in Africa is that as it may seem ironic as my name is Kenya, my parents gave me the name because they hoped one day I would be a missionary and give to the less fortunate. Their missions trip there also impacted the name I was given. The way we want to raise the money for such as project is by creating jewelry, such as rings, bracelets, and necklaces, and taking those profits and giving it to an organization to give a girl an education. The reason we felt it so necessary to focus on the expansion of education is that both of us are very blessed to go to the school we do, and have seen the importance and worth that school can bring out in someone. We hope that just by starting out small, we can create something bigger.

ReplyDeleteThis post explains your project and its purpose well! The focus on your reason for the project really shows how much you care about it. One question I have is, about how much money would you want to raise?
