Since 1946, Rotarians in Georgia, USA, have promoted world peace through understanding by offering scholarships to international students for one year of study in Georgia colleges and universities. Georgia Rotary Clubs sponsor students recommended by a Rotary Club in their home country.The students become adopted members of a Georgia “host family,” living on-campus at the school they attend. This is a scholarship program, not an exchange!

Each year, about 60 students from all over the world make friends in the United States and other nations and learn about differing cultures and life styles. Georgia Rotarians believe “Peace is Possible” and through GRSP promote international goodwill through friendship and understanding.

Following the events of 9/11, children’s painter and illustrator, Kathy Fincher, felt a responsibility to offer a message of hope to American families. She was concerned the heart of our Constitutional principles of “Faith and Freedom” were under attack.

Kathy created a painting, named it “The Dream Keepers”, and it became part of President George W. Bush’s private collection. Lithographs were sold all over the world and the story continues to be shared today. What better place to bring “The Dream Keepers” as a life-sized bronze, than Duluth, one of the most patriotic cities in America and the hometown of the artist?

Kathy Fincher is delighted to team with renowned sculptor, Martin Dawe, (CherryLions Studio in Atlanta Georgia) for they are both classically trained. The quality of the design and sculpting will reflect more than 65 years of combined experience.

As one of the largest figurative public works of children in the country, the artist believes this will become a destination public art piece.
