Peter Maphatsoe, shown with his young students, is the founder of the Children’s Art Organization of Lesotho. He is a 23-year-old self-taught artist who is trying to make money to support his dream to teach art to children in Lesotho. Each picture represents some aspect of traditional Basotho culture, sure to bring back memories of your time in Lesotho. 100% of the money from the sale of these luggage tags and bookmarks will be sent to the artist. All overhead costs are taken care of by the many volunteers working on this project.We have a wide variety of designs, so let us pick one or several for you.
They are only $6 each. Contact the fundraising committee to place your order.
If you would like to see more art from Lesotho, please contact Jane Hale (ph 781-837-4101).
Return to Lesotho for only $10…with our CD of Basotho music
FOL is pleased to offer a CD of Basotho music with thirty songs sung by students at The Catholic Technical School of Leribe (CTSL) and recorded by Don & Donna Hanford (Leribe 2000-2002). Don previously sold the CDs on behalf of CTSL and has handed them over to FOL for sales to support the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). We hope you enjoy this music that is sure to bring back fond memories of your time in Lesotho. The singers names are included with the CD. All proceeds go to the Tuition Assistance Program.
