Coloring Books for 500 Children
Mental health resources for Rohingya refugees




Why coloring books?
We started this project with a vision to create an educational tool that served many purposes.
Our books are fully contextualised to each community, which can be really empowering for marginalised children. Who doesn’t love seeing a cartoon that looks like them?
As coloring is a proven therapeutic activity, our Coloring Books can also be a form of Art Therapy to aid refugee children in recovering from conflict-related trauma. They provide a much-needed creative outlet and act as a fun, productive use of free time in an environment where children are often bored and unengaged due to lack of activities.

“I used to draw pictures at the very beginning of my school life in Myanmar. Most of my friends used to call me small artist. But after forsaking my country, I almost lost my hope to become an artist. This coloring book is awesome. This is the first time that I’ve received a tool from an organization which is related to my talent.”

“This is an educational tool that I love to use. Sometimes I want to spend time alone, but I didn’t have any idea how to spend time alone. So, finally I have found the solution. This is a fun way to express my feelings.”
