This fundraiser is designed to raise awareness of the disease and call for an end to leprosy-related stigma and discrimination. Surrender 365, Inc. is committed to this cause! All proceeds from this fundraiser go to help individuals cured of leprosy (and their families) in Ghana. These gorgeous paintings were created with care on canvas by John Ampao who resides at the Weija Leprosarium in Ghana (see bio below). This fundraiser allows you to celebrate people who have experienced leprosy.

John has been painting since childhood. "I worked in some reputable companies for about four years before setting up my own personal company - Aktual Concept Publicity Co - in Lagos. We created signposts for businesses, van displays, printed magazines and I had my gallery," he said. Life was good for a while and during those 11 years, John trained many apprentices.
John was diagnosed with Leprosy in 2001. He was ostracized by family and friends but welcomed by Fr Campbell and the Lepers Aid Committee. He resides at Weija Leprosarium.
"My future plan is to have a gallery built for me anywhere in the city so that I can use my talent to help my children in their education. So I'm soliciting the public through the help of God, for this, so my dream comes true," John says.
