About This Organization
Draw For A Cause was first envisioned in August 2021 as a platform for young artists to help raise funds for charities.
Draw For A Cause is dedicated towards supporting social movements while also encouraging young artists to value their time and work. Too often, artists have been expected to draw for “exposure”. This practice is used against digital artists who are often tricked into this tactic which results in zero pay. That’s why 15% of all commissions go to the artists themselves. Their hard work isn’t free!
