Art That Does Good...

BY CHANGING THE WORLD OF ART AND GIVING

We're here to CANCEL the starving artist myth... By Building Cause Based Communities

Art For Your Cause is an online community and e-commerce art gallery featuring premium art products. Every purchase pays an artist and benefits either a nonprofit partner or supports Causability 'Creator Grants' for artists' causes.

We’re Providing Artists A Way To Collaborate With Communities Without Giving Their Art Away.
Causability artist grants provide funds to artists as educators, providing them the ability to collaborate with nonprofits benefiting the publics they serve.

Artists

Because AFYC is owned by the nonprofit Causability, it takes a smaller sales commission percentage, therefore enabling artists to receive higher percentages of commissions than any other online marketplace. This enables artists to earn more off their sales.

Nonprofits

AFYC was built on a foundation of genuinely wanting to help those in need. For this reason, we offer creator grants through our nonprofit Causability, so everyone has the potential to financially benefit directly from a 'cause based' collaboration enabling a win, win within the supported community.

Collaboration

We work to benefit all parties involved: artists, nonprofits, collaborating on their causes, and art lovers (aka supporters) helping to grow their community to sustainably grow and prosper.

Transparency

We believe in transparency. We publicly share our financial model. We're here to do good and share our love of art making the world beautiful.

The Bottom Line

Unlike any other art-based online shops, we publicly share our entire financial model.

Here’s how it breaks down for every purchase:

As an artist, Art For Your Cause Founder, Liz London wanted to provide a more effective way to be able to give back to those in her community.

Nonprofits often asked her to donate art for events promoting their causes. Artists who donate their work typically do not receive any payment and sometimes no recognition. Liz wanted to eliminate the  “starving artist myth” stereotype. She knew that other artists shared her challenge. She wanted to find a way to benefit everyone involved. Voilà, the idea for AFYC was born!

In 2022, with the assistance of her family created Causability, a cause based community providing creator grants, fostering collaboration between artists, nonprofits, as well the ability to fundraise.

When artists work in collaboration with nonprofits, who in turn share their artwork with their supportive followers, artists have the opportunity to meet new patrons and enthusiasts who are potential collectors of their art.

Nonprofits often cultivate dedicated, supportive, and a generous following – supporters who are inclined to give donations to a worthy cause. By associating with them as a champion of their cause, artists can create significant value for themselves and their art within the nonprofit’s donor base and their local communities.

10% of AFYC sales goes towards providing  ‘Creator Grants’ through our nonprofit Causability.org, fostering local grassroot community involvement between artists, nonprofits and the causes they care about.

Art For Your Cause (AFYC.com) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the nonprofit Causability.org.

Art For Your Cause LLC is a unique ‘pay it forward’ ecommerce platform for visual artists.

10% of the sales proceeds from AFYC goes to the nonprofit Causability to fund our ‘creator grant’ programs, providing the ability for collaboration between artists and nonprofit communities to build and strengthen their causes through the development of new creative programs.

From Our Happy Artists

Art for Your Cause has been a lifeline. I had to put my art career on hold while merged into the role of caregiver for my mother. With my production being cut nearly to half, I had the good fortune of becoming involved with AFYC.

AYFC was an avenue for me to be able to expose my work to a larger audience and make sales while I work from home just outside of Galveston Island in conjunction with my new role as a caregiver. My mother's health began to fail and I found myself in the midst of serious financial difficulties.

AFYC stepped up when they heard about my situation and bulk purchased my current body of work, giving me the financial wherewithal to weather this storm. Although my mother’s health is still failing, thanks to AFYC I am able to resolve the peripheral issues I was facing and provide comfort and care for her.

Hideout Art is a gift to the community and the Oklahoma City art scene. Everyone who enters Hideout Art enjoys learning trowel painting. During the pandemic Hideout Art suffered financially just like many other art studios. Art For Your Cause stepped in and purchased several of my large paintings and literally kept the lights on here!

AFYC is a true ARTIST LIFELINE and I cannot thank you enough to my very heart and soul. The comfort of knowing that other artists (Liz London) care so much and are out there to help is beyond outstanding and I am so lucky to be loved by and love back AFYC!

Let’s give back by having some new real awareness of just how amazing Art For Your Cause is! Let's look at what Causability will be bringing to our artist world in addition to this amazing step up for artists and buyers alike! Artists!
