Invitation to Discover “Where Hope Begins” – A Photographic Exhibition by Mayaa World
Dear Mayaa friends,
We are thrilled to invite you to “Where Hope Begins”, a photographic exhibition that brings to life the stories and missions of Mayaa World in Hong Kong and Nepal. This collaboration with photographer Sophie Bonnin-Rocher offers a rare glimpse into the lives of families supported by Mayaa, highlighting the transformative power of education in breaking the cycle of poverty.
Through Sophie’s lens, the exhibition captures the daily realities of children and families in both Hong Kong and Nepal—where access to education is often hindered by practical barriers. The images will reveal the tangible impact of Mayaa’s work. This exhibition is an invitation to understand, connect, and see how hope begins with something as simple as a child’s access to education.
