he continues to include donations as a part of his work.
From a young age, Nathan not only exhibited an artistic gift, he appreciated the value of helping others, understanding that efforts on any scale can have a positive impact on the world. At age 8, Nathan brought home yet another rolled-up piece of artwork in his book bag. Having kept most of his paintings, a few years later, his family encouraged him to respond to a call for children’s artwork for a Duke Children’s Hospital fundraiser. Soon after, a letter arrived stating ‘Flowers In The Wind’ had been selected for their 2008 All Occasion Gift Card! This was the 29th year of the Duke Children’s Card Program, with honorary chairman Mike Krzyzewski, better known as ‘Coach K', the head men's basketball coach at Duke University. Being selected included filming a commercial with Coach K and attending a reception with sponsors, family and friends.
The program raised over $2 million for Duke Children’s Hospital & Health Center.
