ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Though the Charity Print Auctions for Haiti have now closed, there are still opportunities to get great art while helping great causes. (And if you know of any besides the ones below, please leave a note in the comments.)First up, Wall Space Seattle has organized a print auction for Doctors Without Borders for the benefit of the people in Haiti. It runs through 3 April 2010. Via Liz Kuball.
The UK-based Nova Gallery's mission is to "to use the unique power of photography to effect social and environmental change." They donate 10% of the sale price of their prints to a selected range of charities, including Amnesty International, The Princes' Trust, and PhotoVoice, who works to provide marginalised communities "with photographic training with which they can advocate, express themselves and generate income."
And with a donation of $500, an opportunity to "help young people with cancer, sponsor a lovely human being running her first marathon, get a tax deduction, and receive a free print -- possibly a 20x24" by photographer and friend Raul Gutierrez. Sponsorship details here.
