The objective of the day was to work with students and paint some leaves that will be part of a tree sculpture and afterwards to plant trees next to the comedor to help create a bit of shade and deflect the heat.

The work that the students created was turned into fabric and then made into wearable fashion pieces like scarves, dresses, shoes, etc. All of the proceeds then go to “Sembrarte”. “Sembrarte” is an organization that helps single moms who have children with disabilities. To culminate the work there was a fashion display at Palacio de Hierro where the pieces were auctioned.

Today we had a visit from Andrea and her mom, who have benefitted from the generosity of Sembrarte. Andrea is a girl with severe scoliosis and down syndrome. Andrea's mom came to meet with the students whose pieces were part of the auction. She explained how because of their pieces Andrea was able to receive a special chair for her scoliosis that her mom has not been able to afford for many years. She also talked about other girls who also received a special mattress for her scoliosis and a mom who is a seamstress but couldn't sow because she didn’t have sewing machines, so she received two sewing machines. It was emotional and real.

Sembrarte approached me to create a partnership between their association and ASFM in 2016. Since then we have had two successful events called "Wear your Art" where students create a piece of art that if selected is transformed into a piece of clothing like a dress, shoes, pants, etc.

This clothing item is then displayed on a runway show and the items are auctioned and the proceeds go to single working mothers who have children with disabilities.
