It has been quite a while since I've posted on here, so I apologize. I've been rather busy with the media/webpages/advertisements for a project some of you may have heard of, a documentary called "The Forgotten".
Below is some concept art by yours truly, with some tips from my pal Hayden of One Little Corner.

I've been spending most of my mornings going out on the streets of Kisumu, Kenya, filming the boys where they work, eat, sleep, and survive. Because of the time I have spent with them I want to share their stories with the world, as most people are woefully informed about street boys.
The purpose of the documentary is simple. Increase awareness of the street boys, and the different organizations helping them. I hope that by showing the example of Kenya, people will take the next step and learn about the street boys in their own country.
In order to help produce, distribute, and sell the documentary, I'll be having an online fundraiser that will go live on March 1st. In addition to the fundraiser, the website, Facebook Page, and additional videos will go live as well that day. I'll be sure and post links to all on March 1st, so keep that date in mind! The fundraiser will run until April 30th, and the goal is to raise around $5,500. I know many of my friends cannot afford large (or any for that matter) contributions, but I have a number of perks that come with donations! ;) Even if you cannot fund the documentary, please share it on Twitter, your blog, Facebook, talking with people, wherever you happen to be! Chances are that if you cannot donate, you know someone who can, thus word of mouth is a powerful tool.
Please help me with this project, even through prayers!
I'll post again on March 1st!
Until then,
Nick, the Towheaded Rambler
