Even before the devastating earthquake on January 12th, Fritznel Elveus spent his entire life helping the people of his native country, Haiti. And now he is doing it from Lexington as an artist selling his beautiful artwork with the proceeds sent back to his homeland. You may have met him at our last Debra’s Social $timulus event at the Barrel House.
We asked Fritznel to make something small, yet special, for those who contributed to our Haiti Challenge. Touched by your generosity, he insisted on donating custom made bookmarks. Be on the lookout for yours in the mail.
