Art Auction for Ayah
We first heard Little Ayah’s story at the Pitch Your Purpose LIVE Piazza back in May. The powerful story resonated with so many of us and as we approach the end of August, the fundraising team is still pushing to get her the medicine she needs, one that could prove life-saving as long as she gets it as soon as possible before she turns two in January 2022.
They will be holding an art auction on Instagram LIVE this Sunday the 29th of August at 4pm BST (UTC+1), so please head over to Little Ayah’s Instagram page for more information. You can also make a one-time donation here.
About Little Ayah
Ayah, now just over 18 months old, suffers from spinal muscular atrophy type 2 and needs the world's most expensive medication called Zolgensma that costs USD 2.18 million. Her parents tried to get assistance through institutions to no avail so they started a fund-raising campaign and have since raised over $2 million — an extraordinary feat of determination and generosity. So close to their goal, but still needing over $50,000, Ayah’s parents and their supporters continue to fight.
Art for Ayah
Among others, the hugely talented Kenyan artist Sheilah Sheldone has donated a beautiful painting of a Lion (pictured above) to help the Ayah Mithika Lundt Foundation get closer to their goal. The picture is one in a series of Sheila Sheldone's masterpieces, which are now being put up for auction starting at $7,000.
Please head over to Little Ayah’s Instagram page this Sunday to support this amazing cause and please email info@hubdot.com if you’re interested in bidding on the artwork.
