UPLIFT.ART
About Us
Uplift.Art is creating a first of its kind triple-win situations for charitable projects, art collectors and artists. We use the power of blockchain to bring unique and verified genuine art of top artists to the blockchain. Art collectors can invest in a great portfolio and see it rise in value while having fun. Artists receive a fair share of profits and get in front of a whole new audience of art investors while aiding and supporting meaningful charity organizations and projects. Charitable and meaningful projects get the funds they need to use in operating and gaining visibility from a segment of individuals who bought this arts and are interested in charity.

Art and Meaning
These 2 complementary concepts are the most important factors for the long-term success of an art legacy.

The Meaning of a Series
Our major events with top artists mean a lot of fun and value for investors a carefully selected goal to make the world better receives vital funding.
We will give 50% of Uplift.Arts revenue directly into our funding goal to make the world better. The project must have a local component to make it transparent and to make it possible to see the life changing impact your purchase has for real people. We do not conduct the projects ourself but assigning them to trustworthy, reputable partners who aim for impact and not for charity as a business model.
We believe in a triple win for everyone who participates. 25% of the revenue goes directly to the artists who provided the art for your collection. A very fair compensation also helps us to onboard top artists to ensure that our events will bring you new crown jewels for your NFT art portfolio for the best collections.
25% goes to Uplift.Art on its mission to disrupt the blockchain industry with new ways of bringing digital collectibles to a new level. Our goal is to lead the way to a broad adoption of NFTs in the art sector far beyond what has been considered so far in the crypto space.

The Journey
This series means a lot for children in Haiti: Every purchase you make will provide badly needed food and education for the poorest:

Uplift Nation started as a transparent blockchain network of non-profit organizations with a common goal to deliver the tools, education and resources that will help empower communities to become healthy, self-reliant and sustainable.
Problem Solution
Massive amounts of charity fraud uncovered over the last decade, from "trusted" organizations has led to a "fingers crossed, wishful thinking" giving experience that ultimately leads to less philanthropy.
Problem Solution
Uplift Nation changes this. Blockchain establishes transparency through a chain of accountability. Through helping traditional non-profits migrate to Blockchain, we open doors to a new giving experience by establishing a transparent and accountable giving network.
How it began
UpliftNation.io , a US 501c3, was founded in 2019 by Michael Blu after alongside his wife Francesca returned home from meeting their adopted daughter Island in Haiti.
Their two weeks in Port A Prince was very revealing as 10 years after the Haiti Tsunami of 2010, the need for transparency and accountability in the charitable space became apparent due to the still ruinous state of the country.
As they pondered exactly what happened to all those billions in supposed donations, the need for assistance utilizing a transparent and accountable model leveraging blockchain and other high technologies seemed promising for the promotion of positive change in the philanthropic and charitable spaces.
Uplift.Art is born
Watching the developments in the blockchain space and how non-fungible tokens (NFTs) will transform whole industries and society itself, it was cleat that there is even more potential. Uplift Nation is the working prototype how to build a transparent charity organization on blockchain. Michael realized quickly that it is not about creating just a more transparent charity organization but to disrupt the way how win-win situations are created and play out to convert a charity project into something that uplifts and supports every party that participates.
Uplift art is now on its way to innovate the blockchain industry further and make the concept ready for one of the first real mass adoption use cases. Some areas Uplift.Art has pioneered so far was selecting WAX as one of the first solutions that can deliver on blockchain technology for average people, thanks to its very non-technical user experience and its fast-free transactions. We also released the first NFT Music Video ever on blockchain, built the first charity art auction, introduced the first pre-minted packs on WAX and developed a whole new set on elaborated burning and engagement mechanics applied to NFTs. And we are just starting.
