I draw bespoke cartoons in return for donations to the Shamas Rugby COVID relief campaign. People contact me through Instagram, and then make a donation of US$10 or above on Shamas Rugby's go-fund-me. After which they can give me an animal and a topic to inspire my drawings - then I do the rest! Check out my Instagram and get in touch if you want to get involved!

You Do You
Shamas Rugby is a Kenyan charity using sport to promote the physical, mental, and social well-being of children and youths living in urban slums. While their goal is to build all-rounded individuals through rugby, Shamas Rugby also aims to make education more accessible and to provide beneficiaries with the knowledge and life skills necessary to live more fulfilling lives.
With the recent outbreak in Kenya, COVID-19 has forced Shamas Rugby to halt all its activities. This has brought additional hardships to the families the organization works within 7 urban slums in Nairobi, Kenya's capital.
Believe
Around 60% of the Nairobi population lives in urban slums. These places are very crowded and very poor. Practicing social distancing and staying at home is practically impossible. Whereas before, these families depended on their daily jobs and, in some cases, on Shamas Rugby to provide for their daily meals, now these people are struggling, even more, to meet their basic needs with the current situation.
All donations received will go directly to support the purchase of food supplies and other essential goods for over 1000 families Shamas Rugby currently works with. The $5,000 raised will be able to feed 1000 families for 3-weeks. $5'000 can cater to a total of 175'000 meals over a 3-weeks period, thus enable these families to eat, support their immune system, and prevent further risks of spreading the virus.

Lose Yourself
That is certainly not a bored panda. That is a panicking panda. (Which, BTW, is what we should change the name to.)
