“Art For A Cause” is a nonprofit fundraiser that we started in 2020 when we decided to start selling art & merchandise as part of our business. We spent a year prior researching different printing businesses to find ones that fit both our ethical and sustainability needs but still felt that there was more that we could do to offset the environmental costs of making and shipping our products.
So we came up with this fun event as a way to celebrate and promote the different environmentally focused nonprofits you all follow and have the EcoElsa Community pick a top winner to receive 10% of our merchandise sales profit for that year as a donation to further support the winning nonprofit. Feel free to submit as many environmentally focused nonprofits as you want below we will announce the top 5 on October 11th and how you will be able to vote for your favorites! If you want to help pick the top 5 make sure to join our eNewsletter list! See art pieces below that represents our 2022, 2021 & 2020 wining nonprofits the Wisconsin Wildlife Federation, River Valley Raptors and Outdoor Afro!
Our Art for a Cause fundraiser is currently on hiatus as we prepare to start putting 50% of art profits into a scholarship fund to make our outdoor classes more accessible for people who need assistance. We look forward to launching this scholarship fund in 2024 and will let you know what date and groups will be involved check our website for more updates to come! We also hope to bring back our art for a cause fundraiser in the future.
