Helping Others Help Themselves


Artists Village does not believe in supporting nor creating a system of economic and/or a lifetime dependency. We believe in equipping and teaching the recipients how to better help themselves. By doing so, we can effectively help as many communities as possible thereby making a tangible difference. 


With the help of donors, Artists Village seeks to build a marketplace where local residents can safely sell their goods, therefore learning how to provide for their families.
