Putting HeArt in Humanity
San Diego, Ca-Hugh Smith
Peggy Sprague’s home looks the office of an art curator and, in a sense, it is. She gathers art from all over the world (at her own expense) to help the homeless around the world. “30,000 children die every day from starvation and Ambassador’s for Humanity was formed to help these children.”
Peggy Sprague is the founder of Ambassadors for Humanity and began her professional career 28 years ago as Co-Founder of the JP Consultants Dental Institute providing clinical and management training throughout the United States and Canada. Peggy has been a public speaker and recognized author for many publications. After 28 years in corporate service, Peggy is fulfilling her dream to merge her business and corporate talents with philanthropic endeavors.
Ambassadors For Humanity assists individuals, companies, foundations and organizations in providing a structure for connecting to the world. The business model is based on a 'forward giving' mission that facilitates global contribution through the sales of Fine Art Products, Gifts and Eco-Friendly Spa Products.
The Forward Giving mission first begins by working with global artists as they create masterpiece art with extraordinary mediums such as coffee, wine, cosmetics, and chocolate. The art is presented through E-Commerce, Art Gallery Events, Exhibitions, Foundations, and Retail venues. The proceeds are donated to noble charitable endeavors in local communities and throughout the world.
Ms. Sprague has spoken at the U.N. and sponsored children all over the world and saved many from hunger and illiteracy. 
“The purpose of corporate sponsorship is to provide these companies with a means of channeling their charitable donations to the helpless of the world. We not only provide art from locals but the funds help the children, as well. I may be off to Cambodia very soon to engage another orphanage.”
“It’s about putting your art where your heart is.”
