BUY A PRINT TO SUPPORT THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT
In a similar vein to the Photographs For The Trussell Trust, the collective of artists and creatives behind The Earth Issue have launched a print-sale to both raise funds for bail contributions and to support organisations fighting for social justice. The group, who work towards the intersection of art and environmentalism, have created The Freedom Fundraiser, where more than 80 artists and photographers are selling prints. Each priced at £100, all profits after printing and shipping will be donated to the Black Lives Matter movement through the Bail Funds: George Floyd platform in the US, and the UK-based youth organisation 4Front Project. The Earth Issue will be constantly monitoring which organisations need funds the most, adjusting who they donate to every three days. Prints are already quickly selling out, including many great visionaries such as 10 contributors Jermaine Francis, Hazel Gaskin and Scandebergs, as well as other big names such as Harley Weir, Jack Davison and Ronan Mckenzie. The Freedom Fundraiser is open for 30 days, it's time to get spending!
