What a great initiative! YiPArt is an event set up by the organization Young in Prison, who is helping children in underprivileged countries and in imprisonment situations to develop social skills and build up self-confidence. Hundreds of famous Dutch and International photographers, among them names such as Erwin Olaf, Charlotte Dumas, Carla van de Puttelaar and Cornelie Tollens, have donated a photograph so that it can be auctioned off at Christie's on 24th October, and thus help raising funds. The photo exhibition is easily accessible to anybody interested. What a brilliant initiative, combining art and offering help and motivation to children in difficult situations.

The pictures are beautiful. If you can spare the money you should try and buy one. It's a great cause.
