Artsy Good is a fundraising service that helps nonprofits raise money using artwork to connect with donors more personally.

Our fundraisers were founded on the belief that:

• Art is a powerful communication tool
• Inspiring donors through art is the best way to connect them to the cause

Our mission is to provide an easy and engaging way to bring art and philanthropy together online.

• Step 1 - Register your nonprofit to start creating your own art fundraiser
• Step 2 - Upload artwork from students, members, or artists in your community to connect and tell a story about your cause
• Step 3 - Share the art and ask supporters to contribute with a donation or to help spread the word
• Step 4 - Donors receive a print of the artwork they support as a gift
• Step 5 - Your nonprofit raises money and awareness by connecting, engaging, and inspiring through art

Congratulations, that's very exciting! If you, or your legal guardian, have granted permission, your artwork will display on the fundraiser page. You can also provide the event organizer an email address to be notified when donors make a contribution in support of your artwork. Finally, share your art and have an Artsy Good time raising money for your cause.

When you grant permission, you are allowing your artwork or the artwork of a minor to be displayed on the fundraiser page and possibly have prints of the artwork sent as gifts to donors. You may deny or revoke permission at any time and the artwork will no longer be visible publicly.

Each artist on the Artsy Good website is identified by a "username" which is usually their First name followed by an assigned number (e.g., Jessica127). At the event organizer's discretion, last names may be posted publicly for artists who are not minors. For more info, please review our Privacy & Security Policy.
