Welcome to the GRAFFITI Foundation!
What does the G.R.A.F.F.I.T.I stand for you ask?
It's an acronym for Gathering Responsible Artists For the Fight In Transcending Irresponsibility.
We are a grassroots social enterprise that has been created to help artists reap the benefits of their passion, while also creating an sense of Community Service.
What is a Social Enterprise? Social enterprises are social mission driven organizations which trade in goods or services for a social purpose. Their aim to accomplish targets that are social and environmental as well as financial is often referred to as having a triple bottom line. Social enterprises are profit-making businesses set up to tackle a social or environmental need. Many commercial businesses would consider themselves to have social objectives, but social enterprises are distinctive because their social or environmental purpose is central to what they do
Mission: Our mission is to help local artists find an outlet for their creativity, energy and voice as well as teach them how to create a future from their passion
Vision: Create a self sustaining Social Enterprise that brings a new social awareness to the local community to help reduce the amount of unwanted graffiti in the city. By working with both the artist and the community, it is our vision to help create a solid platform of art over vandalism. It is also our goal to use funds that were once allocated towards cleaning graffiti and have it redirected it to help improve the lives of individuals by giving them the financial resources and the opportunity for a formal, art/academic-based education
