Our Mission
“Turn Art into Bread”
We utilize the Arts to fight World Hunger with an emphasis on creating food sustainable communities.
Our Approach
At Artists for Advocacy International, we are art professionals who create awareness about World Hunger and engineer pathways to Food Sustainable communities. We create art & hold events where we sell and display our work to help resolve hunger and food insecurity.
Planning
Listening to the communities we serve. Together we create an action plan, budget, and completion strategy.
Implementation
Create revenue streams by selling art that generates the resources needed to be Food Secure. Create, give, and build.
Post-Implementation
Monitor the food security of the area through local partnerships.
Why Food?
The Problem
70% of the global food supply comes from rural small farms, yet these farmers are some of the poorest people on Earth.
The Work
Giving people enough calories to perform daily duties reduces illness, raises test scores, helps breastfeeding mothers, etc
The How
Using Art revenue to generate investment opportunities for sustainable agriculture locally and internationally.
The Result
Creating food security for communities that have been hobbled by food deserts, harsh weather conditions, and poverty
“Hunger affects more than the body. It affects the psyche. It creates a sense of helplessness in the being. It makes us wild again. We know we can’t feed everyone, but we can feed someone. What if we could turn a photograph into a glass of water, or a painting into a meal? We know we can, and that’s why we are Artists for Advocacy”
