Friends Lifting Individuals To Empowerment
It started with a dream.
The strength of self-esteem. The power of expression. The beauty of love.
The freedom to magnify all three is FLITE’s mantra, its spirit, its dream.
The dream was born from the Founders’ beliefs that everyone has unique gifts and talents.
For many individuals, however, life’s experiences can be immensely painful and restricting.
Like a butterfly, a person’s creative talents are waiting to emerge from a cocoon, to be nurtured.
When an artist’s potential is allowed to develop and mature, they then possess the power to reach beyond themselves, to cross any border, to be understood in any language. They can then truly touch the lives of others.
FLITE’S founders searched for ways to assist and empower individuals struggling with many different issues, and realized that their vision could best be accomplished through art.
The many facets of art are uniquely capable of providing people with the opportunity to reflect, build self-esteem, and project their personal perspectives outward.
The result is a source of freedom and engagement, for both the creator and the observer. With this goal, the vision of FLITE’s founders took off in 2015.
As the cocoons mature, and the butterflies are nurtured, the dream becomes reality.
