GM Fam. Having seen some of these legends wear torn uniforms or not even have one to wear, @MissEv812 has asked we do something about it. As such we want to give 65 pupils new sets of uniforms with funds from @MissEv812 @MagicBawls @MemeForTrees @MaciejKoterba Tailors are working!

GM Fam. Looking at this particular picture gives us joy. Despite the challenges faced by these, they are genuinely happy. Thanks once more to everyone who made these possible.

By the Grace of God we'll be going LIVE here on X for the 2nd Back to School Bag Drive! This event was sponsored by @Snakeoil26 @MissEv812 @WaveWarZ @ReachROCKIN @RainbowMosho @HangryAnimals We hope all the kids in the school get school supplies! 11am WAT 5am EST HERE ON X!

GM Fam. Update! The Backpack Donation event scheduled for today will not hold, it's been shifted to next week. This is because we couldn't finish the bags on time. Please be patient for Next Week Tuesday or Wednesday! Here's a Sneak Peek!

We saddened to share that the brain behind the Borehole water project we did to a community passed yesterday. He was known for his expertise in anything BOREHOLE. We are heart broken as this is caused by substance abuse. Let's make choices that help us instead of cut short out lives.

A LETTER TO EVERYONE WHO WALKED WITH US THROUGH ARTIZEN When we joined @Artizen, we didn’t join simply to sell digital art. We joined because we saw an opportunity to turn art, community and Web3 into something that could change real lives. We believed in what we were building with Building Tomorrow — a permanent community learning and vocational centre where children and young people can learn practical vocational skills, use technology, create, earn and build a better future for themselves and help build others too. So we told our friends and family about Artizen. We invited people into the platform. We asked you to support our project. Some of you bought Artifacts. Some shared our posts. Some introduced others to what we were doing. Some kept showing up season after season. And because of you, Building Tomorrow raised real money and gained a community of people who believed in the vision. Then Artizen came to an unexpected end. In his announcement, René shared that he had suffered two strokes within the past month, leaving him with ongoing physical and cognitive effects. He explained that his recovery would not be quick and that, after nearly 19 years of building the work that became Artizen, he had made the difficult decision to end active operations. Whatever our feelings about how things have unfolded, we genuinely wish him strength and recovery. But there is another side to this that we need to acknowledge. To everyone we personally invited to @Artizen, everyone we encouraged to buy an Artifact, and everyone who trusted us enough to support Building Tomorrow through the platform: We are sincerely sorry! We know you supported us because you trusted us. Some of you stepped onto a platform you may never have joined because you believed in HuRya and what we were trying to build. We don’t take that trust lightly. We cannot change how this chapter has ended. But we can take responsibility for the journey. And most importantly, we can choose what happens next. WE ARE NOT STOPPING. @Artizen was a chapter. Building Tomorrow for kids and girls is the story. The dream was never about a platform. It has always been about the children. The land is still there. The vision is still there. The plans are still there. And the work of HuRya Empowerment Foundation continues. We will keep pursuing grants, donors, partners, sponsors and sustainable sources of income. We will keep serving communities. We will keep supporting children. And we will keep working toward a place where young people don’t only receive help — they learn to create their own opportunities. From aid to skills. From skills to opportunity. From opportunity to independence. That is where we’re headed. To everyone who believed in us through @Artizen : Thank you. To everyone who bought an Artifact: Thank you. To everyone who shared, encouraged, promoted, introduced someone, or simply told us to keep going: Thank you. We may have lost a platform. We have not lost the vision. We’re still here. We’re still serving. We’re still building. Building Tomorrow.

Feeling GRATEFUL!

Thank you for always helping us push. Thank you so much for the donation. God bless and we are most grateful.

Awesome to see these legends hanging those backpacks...
