Aylie and Andrew traveled to Mohale's Hoek, Lesotho in the summer of 2010. We worked with Sr. Juliana and the people of the St. Camillus Centre for Orphaned and Vulnerable Children for 3 weeks, and while we were there the children made some beautiful artwork. We have used images of their cut paper flowers to make note cards and buttons in the hopes of raising money to send back to Sr. Juliana and the people of St. Camillus. Please see below for donation info, and thank you for your support and interest!

Each Flower of Lesotho

We now have 30 flowers available as note cards. The artwork is by the orphans and vulnerable children of the St. Camillus Community in Mohale's Hoek, Lesotho. There is a photo of the child who made the flower and some information about the community on the back of the card, while the inside is blank. All proceeds go to directly to the St. Camillus Community.

Check out images of all 30 Flowers of Lesotho below. Click on each flower for a larger view.
