KIM ROSE

MISSION MARISOL
Kim's mission is to show how art can make a tangible difference, and using fine art as a way to bring funds and awareness to the beautiful kids in Tijuana Mexico. 10% of profits from each fine art piece sold by Kim Rose is donated to help foundations aiding kids lives —this is just one part of Mission Marisol. Mission Marisol is also a Gala Charity Art Auction featuring fine artists from around the globe. Proceeds are donated directly to help shape brighter futures for kids in Tijuana, Mexico.

KIM'S STORY BEHIND THE MISSION:
Her mother, Marisol, and her sisters were born and raised in Monterrey, Mexico. Despite growing up in poverty, she always spoke of her childhood in an endearing way. In her words, “we didn’t know we were poor.”
And, one of the main reasons being the presence of a school nearby offered free acting classes, art supplies, and a meal for all kids. So her mother and her sisters would spend their evenings at this school with a community of other kids not only having fun, but building a strong foundation for the future by exploring their own creativity, building confidence in themselves, and staying away from alternatives such as drugs and alcohol. This foundation helped them grow up in a loved environment, where Kim's mother was able to grow into an incredible adult she was.
