Two Local Owensboro Girls Painting With A Purpose [UPDATE]
A few weeks ago we shared a story about Gracen and Emilee Gabbert and how they had decided they wanted to help their mom out by raising money for church camp! The girls wanted to also help out other youth attend camp as well so they got to work.
They came up with the idea that they would use their God-given talents and creativity to paint canvases with pictures and bible verses on them and sell them for $5 a piece.
Here are just a few more of the pieces the girls painted!
I am super proud to announce the girls were at my house this weekend and told me they raised over$1,500 for camp and also to send 3 other youth to camp too!
