Give Well - art fundraiser


I'm going out on a limb here, and trying to sell a piece of my artwork. This is a scary thing for me, but I figure what's the worst that can happen?

100% proceeds will go towards our Give Well fundraiser.

I will ship this one-of-a-kind, painfully-stylish, handmade-in-California, woven wall-hanging to the first person who donates at least $30 to our Give Well fundraiser. Just leave your name along with the donation on our fundraising page which can be found here. Then send your mailing address to edandcori@gmail.com 


We want to share our blessings. And we need your help! Our goal is to raise $5,000 to fund a well for a village in India through Living Water International in the next 53 days. Here is our fundraising page.

We are 33% of the way there. THANK YOU everyone for your contributions. Let's keep going!

South Carolina

Our visit to North Augusta was great! We got to see Uncle Ed and Hannah, and make new friends with Dale and Arthur. Ed's house is close to downtown, and is adjoining a pretty park, with everything you need in biking/walking distance. We had a whole fenced in yard to ourselves, didn't feel like we were in the middle of a city. The chickens really add to the ambiance. 5 star location :)

Guess What

All week we were kept busy, well fed, and engaged in great conversation. Ed is a founder of The Clubhou.se, a new Makerspace in downtown Augusta. (It's this kind of community action, that is making the world a better place!) We got a tour, and met some other makers. This week, Hannah and Ed's project was making light up shoes! I helped!

Seriously, they've got the best little urban homestead going on.

Uncle Ed gave us a metalwork lesson! Pretty good for my first go, eh? btw I was totally not afraid of the torch and plasma cutter..
