Rooted in Community

Little Root Creative invests in local, national and international causes and non-profits through a variety of means.

Everything begins with water.

The organization that will always be near and dear to our hearts is the ministry of Living Water International, based in Houston, Texas but serving those in need world-wide. You can find out more about the water crisis, see their current and completed projects, and find information about upcoming events and trips by visiting www.water.cc
Living Water International exists to demonstrate the love of God by helping communities acquire desperately needed clean water, and to experience “living water”—the gospel of Jesus Christ—which alone satisfies the deepest thirst.

A.R.T. Little Rock / Easter Seals

http://www.mlnart.com
A program for the severely handicapped introduced by artist, client and friend Mary Lynn Nelson to Little Rock Easter Seals. Developed by artist Tim Lefens, A.R.T. allows those without use of their arms and hands, who have never been able to express themselves through art, an opportunity to do so. While on her continual search for her passion and purpose, Mary Lynn believes God orchestrated events that paved the way for A.R.T. to have a presence in Arkansas.
