The project comes after the success of its solidarity Art Gallery, with the participation of renowned artists such as Nicolás de Maya, Mikel Izal, Love of Lesbian or Teresa Perales.
The NGO Ayúdame3D presents this month its project "Helpi of the month", an initiative that brings together professionals from the art world and personalities from other fields in order to help people with disabilities around the world. The invited artists will intervene Helpi, the charity mascot of the organization, giving rise to unique pieces.
Each month the entity will collaborate with a different person who will donate his or her work. All these works will be exhibited in an Art Gallery at the end of the year for a charity auction, becoming solidarity actions that will help children with disabilities around the world. " We want to show the world that technology can change lives and that it is in everyone's hands to make it possible. This is only the first Helpi of 2025, but we have already received confirmation from other great artists," says Guillermo Gauna-Vivas, CEO of Ayúdame3D.

February's Helpi has been created by Alei(@aleidraws), an artist who has collaborated with musical groups and big companies such as ZARA. He defines himself as a romantic and in his works stands out the use of bright colors and graphic elements such as flowers or stars. All of them can be seen in his Helpi of pink colors, which gives prominence to flowers. "Ayúdame3D makes with its prostheses that people can write, cook or play again. With this Helpi I wanted to give value to the most everyday and simple actions, which we often take for granted, but which are important, such as the act of giving flowers. What I have done is that Helpi, with her prosthesis, shows how beautiful this gesture is", explains Alei.

Alei is the first of the 12 artists who in 2025 will participate in this initiative, which will culminate at the end of the year with the realization of the second edition of Ayúdame3D's Solidarity Art Gallery. An event, which took place for the first time last December, and was a great success with the participation of artists such as Nicolás de Mayo or Hugo Fontela and personalities such as Mikel Izal, Love of Lesbian or Teresa Perales.
Ayúdame3D unites, once again, art with social technology to continue delivering new assistive devices and to make visible that our differences make us equal. The "Helpis of the Month" can be purchased after the exhibition in a solidarity auction, whose profits will go to the creation of aids for children and adults with disabilities in more than 60 countries.
