    The Foundation builds on Mark Obama Ndesandjo's personal experience and proven track record of over ten years working with orphans in China. Its unique focus is sharing art with children as well as other disadvantaged kids to help build a global community.


    The Foundation develops art opportunities for young people, complementing work study and language initiatives already underway in China, Kenya and America, all within an integrated framework.

 

    The programs aim to link global communities based on active participation of Foundation members, corporations, the public and relevant government institutions.

About the Novel
 
 
The protagonist, upon arriving in China in the wake of 911 and the onset of a terrifying global war, is forced to confront his early experiences in Kenya and the United States as a result of his growing love for a beautiful Chinese woman and a young orphan. Parallels between his own upbringing and the potential family that lies before him lead to questions about his true identity, the complexities of his multi-racial family and the relationship he had known with his father. 15% of profits from book sales are donated to help disadvantaged children.
