Brooke USA— a non-profit, Board-led organization, dedicated to alleviating the suffering of working equines and the people they serve in the developing world—welcomes the Boys & Girls Club of the Sandhills for an exclusive meet and greet with Hollywood actress and singer Kayden Muller-Janssen during the one-time screening of the critically acclaimed movie, EO. Directed by Polish master Jerzy Skolimowski. “EO” is a story about an innocent donkey who travels the Polish and Italian countryside and encounters an array of people – good and bad.
The talented young star and equestrian, Kayden Muller-Janssen will present autographed photos for local youth in need of community support and positive role models. By joining Brooke USA, the Boys & Girls Club of the Sandhills maintains its mission to inspire, enable and educate young people from all backgrounds and circumstances to realize their full potential as productive, responsible, and caring citizens.
During the exclusive event, Brooke USA Board Chairman Jim Hamilton DVM will reveal the specially designed, EO movie inspired painting by award winning artist Jane Casnellie whose work, featured locally at Shop of Her Own, forms a beautiful union between animals and nature. An equestrian from a young age, Ms. Casnellie regularly donates her art to local fundraising events that benefit animal welfare.
Additional special guests include:
