Fundraise Story: Elle and Enzi – New York, NY

Petopia Pet Drawing Squad: Pet E-Portraits by Kids for Charity Kids Pet Drawings to Make a Difference

Inspired by world events, like the COVID-19 pandemic and the battle against systemic racism, 8-year-olds Elle and Enzi wanted to do their part however small, so they started Petopia Pet Drawing Squad.

 

Elle and Enzi, two besties with big hearts created Petopia Pet Drawing Squad because they want to bring people joy while helping others. Elle and Enzi were used to seeing each other every day in school and playing after school and were missing each other during quarantine and stay-at-home orders. But they understood that this was a minor concern as they were learning about the extraordinary hardships of many families in their hometown of NYC. To stay connected and make a difference, Elle and Enzi with their love of drawing and of animals founded Petopia Pet Drawing Squad.  Since June 2020, Petopia Pet Drawing Squad offers hand-drawn replicas of your favorite pet photos for a suggested $20 donation.

 

If you’re looking for an adorable e-drawing of your dog, cat, fish, bunny, dolphin, alligator or whatever your favorite furry friend or precious pet may be, be sure to check out Petopia Pet Drawing Squad. Enzi’s favorite pets that he has drawn so far are Devon the Dolphin and Phoebe the Dog. His favorite part is “knowing that the pictures help raise money for charity.” Elle’s favorite pets that she has drawn are Buster the Bunny and Bubbles the Fish. Her favorite thing about this is “that we are helping to make the world a better place.”
