Country without orphans Follow our campaign here and get involved! Help us send these Rwandan orphans to school, buy their work. 3 photobooks = 1 year primary school.

What happens if a country closes all its orphanages? A few weeks before L'Esperance Children’s Village in Rwanda shut its doors, photographer Anaïs López, filmmaker Anisleidy Martínez and writer Paulien Bakker gave a photography course to 32 remaining children. The orphanage is located on the edge of Lake Kivu, bordering Congo. There is no electricity, no tap water, and there are no mirrors. With

camera in hand, the children learned to look at themselves and their world. They photographed their brothers and sisters before they were sent to live miles away from each other with far relatives or a new adoptive family. Back in Holland, we had a collection of amazing images. We came up with this crazy idea: let's make a beautiful photo notebook with their pictures, and sell them so we can help them to school. Join us in our adventure and buy a book. 3 photo notebooks is enough to send a child to primary school for a year.
