The Sultana of the Royal House of Maguindanao and founder of We Care for HumanityMaria Amor Torres Mastura, also known by her artist name as Amortorres raised funds for her charity by auctioning four of her Abstract collection. 

According to Mr. Luiz de Alcantara“informal art and figurative expressionism are married in the artistic work of Sultana Princess Maria Amor. Her paintings offer a visual experience composed of great aesthetic effects, thanks to the lines and shapes observed in her works produced with volumes and materials of liquefied appearances. The predominant colors are warm and connote with the mysteries of the earth. A generic message emerges from her works that exerts a direct influence on the human soul, touched in its most sensitive points. The artist Amortorres travels and explores in depth the Eastern and Western creative universes with the intention of promoting art and harmony between different cultures”.  Luiz de Alcântara holds a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Visual Arts from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Brussels which develops activities in the areas of theory and practice of fine arts and industrial arts.

Dr. Wellington Queiroz of the Queiroz Advogados and Gruppo Nicolettii  acted as the dynamic auctioneer who had won the interests of the audience and made a breakthrough by selling all the four Amortorres paintings. The generous bidders who won the auction were Dr. Sargento Paulo, a revered politician and Dr Lúcia Cristina, a successful lawyer, both from Brasilia. 

Amortorres herself was ecstatic at the outcome and thanked everyone who contributed to the success of the event, especially the above-mentioned partners, Dr. Franco Nicoletti, founder of Gruppo Nicoletti, the former president of Ecuador- H.E. Rosalia Arteaga, the organizer- Aria Travel Intelligence headed by Iva Evangelista, emcee- Lucas Carvalho, Alexandre Augusto Honorio, Gabriela Magalhaes, Keveni Guedes Santos, Maxwell Santos and Matteo.

We Care for Humanity Adopted a Primary School in IndiaThe founder of We Care for Humanity (WCH)Sultana Maria Amor Torres traveled to Puducherry, India to fulfill her commitment to the Little Angels Junior Primary School to be its second mother.

The Godmother program is a new Education program of WCH wherein we adopt marginalized schools by means of giving them financial support on regular basis to sustain their status or aid their critical financial situations and even uplift the economic condition of the school.”, explained by Torres. She added, “schools who qualify as our adoptees are those you may consider very poor, most often located in far flung areas in developing countries, and experiencing economic hardships, that when we come in. We not only offer financial support but other sustainable solutions so they can keep the schools going and the children are guaranteed to receive education.

Maria was accompanied by WCH Regional Director, Logesh Dhanasekaran and WCH Humanitarian Ambassador, Rajasimhan Murugavel on a 10-hour roundtrip from Chennai to Karaikal. “We are so proud of the work of WCH all over the world and even more grateful for the accomplishment of WCH that’s being carried-out in our area. As the WCH Regional Director in Tamil Nadu, it will be my duty to ensure that our WCH’s mission and vision are being implemented well and we impact the community in the most effective way,” said Dhanasekaran.

Little Angels Junior Primary School is a government approved school with affordable fees to ensure many students attain education from poor financial background. “We are grateful to Princess Maria Amor and We Care for Humanity, if not for them we would have totally lost the license to operate the school,” explained Mrs. Sumathy Thirupathy, the founder of the school. “We were able to solve the issues of improving the public toilet of the school, as well as paying the government fees to continue our operation. And now that WCH is our permanent Godmother who will support us every step of the way, it’s only fitting that we name the school after Princess Maria,” she proudly added.

The school is now named Princess Maria Amor Little Angels Primary School, located in Kairakal, Puducherry, and currently catering to 100 students. The school provides food for the students and other support other than education.
