Art4Relief was a non-profit startup that I co-founded with my friend. We aimed to bridge local artists with broader audiences and fundraise for humanitarian issues in their communities. Our main project focused on supporting earthquake victims in Turkiye.

​

We partnered with 13 local Turkish artists and created Thank You postcards for the Earthquake Relief in Turkiye. These postcards were sold on Etsy, and we attended various fundraiser events across the United States, including California, Chicago, New Jersey, Philadelphia, Virginia, and Washington, DC. We also partnered with a well-known café, Paper Plane Coffee Co. in Montclair, NJ, which displayed the postcards for a year to help raise funds. Through these efforts, we raised about $5,000, and all profits were donated to several NGOs providing relief to victims in Turkiye.
