BetweenHeavenAndEarth

Hello!

My name is Carla Cid de Diego, I am the creator of Art & Hope, a platform that unites the worlds of Art and Philanthropy, creating artistic projects around a philanthropic mission, in order to help raise funds for their needs.
The missions can be anything, from children, minorities, animals, environment, wars, disasters, etc.

In our first project ever at Art & Hope, back in 2020/2021, we were able to raise over $3 million dollars to help children in impoverished areas.

Now we are developing our second Global project:
"Between Heaven & Earth", a beautiful initiative that helps children with ultra-rare genetic diseases through the Columbus Children's Foundation, which focuses on the investigation of treatments and cures for rare diseases that are not funded by the governments.

These children are born with diseases so severe, they have a life-span of no longer than 10 years old. And thanks to the work of the foundation, which is founded by scientists and doctors, they not only get a chance to get treatment, they actually obtain the chance to have a full-term life.

On the video you can see one of the success stories of the Columbus Children's Foundation. Irai, is one of the reasons why Art & Hope is putting all of this together, we want to help many children just like her to have the oppportunity to have a life.

Inspired by the foundation and their mission, "Between Heaven & Earth" offers a Sensory Experience of a Lifetime that money can’t buy, awakening the 5 senses through the power of ART:

• Hearing - Music
• Sight - Fine Art
• Taste & Smell - Food
• Touch - Jewels & Magic

Uniting 5 cities in the world, 5 opera houses, 5 major fine artists and 5 Michelin-Star chefs, in order to connect people from all around the world and raise over $5 million dollars for the children's treatments and cures.

We have everyone on board, the operas in 5 cities:
- La Fenice in Venice, Italy
- Teatro Real in Madrid, Spain
- Kravis Center in Palm Beach, Florida
- Metropolitan Opera in NYC
- Dubai Opera in the UAE

We have the 5 Michelin-Star chefs, the 5 major fine artists, world-known musicians... We've  partnered with Broadway Entertainment Group to produce our event in Dubai, and we have been endorsed by the United Nations because the mission aligns with their Sustainable Development Goals.

Each event will offer a spectacular private dinner inside the selected palace of the Opera in each city, prepared and presented by our selected incredible Michelin-Star chef. And while our guests are delighted by the one of a kind 5-star dinner, they will be mesmerized by a unique musical performace by world-known musicians, such as the one and only Ara Malikian. And also a special soul-touching, mind-blowing experience through the touch of the Cirque du Soleil magical illusionist, Dekay The Purist.

The objective of the dinners is to auction off the artwork created by the artist of that city, the luxury jewel created by the Czech designer Aneta Zae, for each event, as well as the different packages and items from donors, so we can raise as many funds as possible for the cause.

Now, we only need a bit of help in order to start up this project. With a bit of support from our friends and family, we will be able to put this project up on its feet, so we can make it a reality and we can start raising all the funds we can for the children and families in need.

We need your help! We need your support! Anything you can support us with, will be truly appreciated.
We will be offering perks in exchange for your support. 
Anyone that donates $2,000 and up will be exclusively invited to be part of our dinner experience in one or more of the cities of their choice:
- Venice, Italy
- Madrid, Spain
- Palm Beach, Florida
- New York, NY
- Dubai, UAE

Please, whatever you can give, even if it's only $5, it all adds up to the cause. We need to make this happen in January, so we can make sure we save many of the children that are in need of treatment right now.

Every single person that donates to the cause through this campaign will have their name added to our list of Art & Hope supporters in our website, as a token of our appreciation.
