This September (NOW!) I'm riding with Thighs of Steel from Thessaloniki to Athens (560km in six days!) in solidarity with refugees and migrants.

But I want to be creative and make this fundraiser my own, sooooo, I've incorporated my art into the fundraising! Over the summer, I "sold" aka donated over 10 paintings to lovely people in my life, and 100% of the proceeds went to this fundraiser! I am so happy that these paintings are going on my friends' walls and that I get to share the joy, color, and expression of these paintings with my community!

I am also STILL running a raffle! Every £10/$12 donation will enter you into the raffle to win a surprise painting!! I will draw the winner of the raffle after the end of the ride in the middle of September! Who doesn’t love a good surprise piece of art?!?

We are fundraising for a really important cause - the “migration crisis” in Europe still exists, there are tens of thousands of asylum-seekers in Greece trapped by the racist border regime, often lacking safe accommodation, psycho-social support, and legal aid. In the UK, the hostile environment negatively impacts migrants across their every day life. The projects MASS Action supports are migrant-led, dignified, & sustainable.

The full amount of your donation will be distributed by MASS Action to grassroots projects that support refugees in the UK, Greece and beyond.That means every penny counts so don't forget to aid Gift Aid if you're eligible.Thank you for being so generous!
