MOSS clean water flows at Manyalane!
It took several months of digging & plumbing, more than 100 original artworks and dozens of volunteers to bring this life changing permanent water system to 1,325 people in the Manyalane community.
Thanks so much to everyone who contributed! 🛹👩‍🎨👨‍🎨💧

At Learnlife, studios are more than just maker labs.

Wherever possible, we seek to make an impact on our local community and beyond.

This cycle, we are thrilled to be collaborating with Lilima Montessori High in Eswatini, Africa, through an exchange of beats, voices, instruments, and rhythms.🪘🥁🪇

Learners will guide the project, choosing from a wide menu of ideas that include collaborative songwriting using traditional Eswatini and Catalan songs, creating cross-cultural duets, cultural exchange lessons in dance, and shooting music videos. 📹💃🏻

International Women’s Day is time to celebrate what we do all year.

Thanks to the generosity of our MOSS supporters, together we are making a real meaningful difference for women and girls in Eswatini, Africa.

Clean water means girls have more time to go to school rather than carrying water for their families.

Training in practical plumbing skills not only ensures women are able to maintain and repair their clean water system, but gives them a strong sense of ownership and empowerment.

Clean water also empowers women with opportunities to make more of their lives, like learning permaculture, growing crops for healthy food, and maybe having enough left over to sell at the market – and perhaps earn enough money to buy some bread, as one woman told me.

Thanks again to all the artists, bidders, volunteers and sponsors that make all this possible. 🛹🎨💧💙

The MOSS Foundation Hawane Community Clean Water System is now flowing a life changing, permanent, clean water supply for 1300 people.

Honoring Grandma’s Legacy 🌹

In my latest artwork, I poured my heart into capturing the essence of a vase with vibrant red flowers – a tribute to my grandmother’s favorite. This piece is more than just a creation; it’s a reflection of the strength and beauty she embodied throughout her life.

Dedicated to my grandmother during her courageous battle, this artwork is a celebration of family values that she instilled in us. Each brushstroke carries the love, resilience, the cherished memories we shared and more coming. Family, like the blossoming flowers, remains a source of strength and inspiration.

In the face of life’s challenges, may it serve as a reminder of the enduring power of family bonds and the lasting impact of those we hold dear.

What a beautiful dedication to an Amazing woman ❤️

This board can be yours bidding goes live in the 2nd of December & you can view this stunner

All proceeds will go to water projects.
