Paint a Future makes children’s dreams come true
Paint a Future is a charity founded by the Dutch artist, Hetty van der Linden. Hetty
travels all over the world, painting with disadvantaged children. She tells them to
paint their dreams - to imagine the paintbrush she gives them is a magic wand
and that the dreams they paint might one day come true. Established and wellknown
artists from many different countries are inspired by the dreams the children
paint, incorporating them into their own works of art. The paintings are sold
and the proceeds go directly back to the child - helping to fulfill their dreams
and create a better future for them and their families. By purchasing a painting you
are not only buying a work of art for your own investment and enjoyment, you
are helping a child build a better future.
