This banner graphic is the logo for Whisper 'n Thunder, a nonprofit dedicated to empowering Native Americans. Our name stands for ~ The Whisper of Native American Stories, the Thunder of Stories that Demand to be Told. Our true value is justice. Since that's not listed, nor is empowerment or impact, we'll go with 'making a difference!'

Ky save22

Every July, my parish and 2 others go to Beatyvile, Kentucky, where we build homes for some of the most impoverished people in our country. This is a picture of our crew standing in a house that a group of us had built. The man who owns this house today was so thankful for it he was decorating before we had all the electric done! To some people, the house we built was small and irrelevant when you drove past. To the locals, every house we build there makes a difference. Whether it's a porch we build or an addition or a water line, every local knows which house it is. We make a difference. It's amazing to be able to help the people there because they genuinely appreciate our effort and make us realize all we have to be grateful for. I am eternally thankful for the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of these people, and for everything they have taught me about living.

This is a 30x 40 inch original oil on canvas. I was asked to paint an image to be used on tee shirts, stationary, etc. for an American Cancer Society Relay for Life in the small town where I live: Havana Florida. It helped raise 64,000 from this little town for the cause. I still own the painting and it is shown in a frame shop in Tallahassee, Florida. It won Best of Show at Creative Tallahasse, City Hall, Tallahassee.FL.2006 I can send a higher resolution image if you need it Thank you June
