Artists For Humanity’s mission is to provide under-served youth with the keys to self-sufficiency through paid employment in the arts. It is built on the philosophy that exposure to the arts is a powerful force for social change, and creative entrepreneurship through the arts is a productive and life-changing opportunity for young people. Bridging economic, racial, and social divisions, AFH works to restore urban neighborhoods by introducing young people’s creativity to the business community.
At the heart of Artists For Humanity is the belief that acquiring a strong skill set is equivalent to attaining power and opportunity. We have three goals, which provide underserved youth with access to the things they need most:
• a safe meaningful place where they are respected for their contributions,
• an opportunity to have a voice through exhibitions, commercial services, and presentations,
• respect and responsibility of paid employment promoting financial awareness and self esteem.
Artists for Humanity has not yet started any petitions.
