The Before I Die Wall is a wonderful project that did bring the community together and promote mindfulness and reflection. The idea of creating a wall where people can share their thoughts and aspirations before they die is a powerful and poignant one that could inspire people to live more fully in the present moment.
To promote the project, Loretta Downs had a vision and reached out to local woodworking school Have Hammer Will Travel A.C (Escuela de Artes Industriales and asked the students at the school to build the wall. We also considered partner with local organizations such as Lake Chapala society, hospices, senior centers, or spiritual communities to spread the word and encourage participation.
It was built the students and displayed at Lake Chapala Society and was a success. Thank you partnering with Have Hammer Will Travel A.C, and supporting the building of the Before I Die Wall. Your continuing support Makes a difference.
Overall, this project made a meaningful impact in the community,
