About
A humanitarian, equitable, for-profit, fundraising venture.
Create Aid is an online artist residency and art gallery building a grassroots movement for the appreciation, promotion and education of the arts. We raise funds through the sale of artwork for those in need and the causes that support them — and at times propose and curate creative projects that address basic and complex humanitarian issues.
“The third economic form will arise not only through the two older forms — Capitalism and Communism — first modifying and then synthesizing one another, but also through the imperative needs of our own time forcing our inventiveness and creativeness to add their special contribution.”
The Model
Buy Art. Fuel an Artist.
Fund a Cause.
Every purchase splits three ways — by design. A transparent profit model that pays the maker, sustains the platform, and funds humanitarian work.
of item profit goes directly to the maker
fuels reach so the work finds its people
funds humanitarian projects and partners
Make the world a better place
Get creative. Make some art. Change a life.
