purpose over profit

In the spirit of inclusivity and recognizing the diverse rhythms of financial means, we decided to incorporate a Pay What You Can model. The way this came about was by talking with my mentor about money as a song. It’s a melody that acknowledges the different pitches of financial circumstances, ensuring that everyone can tune into the rhythm of collective participation. So with this approach it invites you to subtract 10%, 15%, or 20% from the listed price, acknowledging the various notes that compose the symphony of our community.
For those able to contribute more, your generosity orchestrates a chorus of support, helping to bridge the gap and harmonize the journey for those who may be facing financial constraints, and knowing that the money goes directly to helping the projects and initiatives that we are implementing across the world. This Pay What You Can model is not just a transaction; it’s a communal composition where each note contributes to the melody of shared accessibility and mutual support. Let’s sing the same song.

reviews

"I recently purchased a print from Shop2Give, and I have to say, the quality is absolutely stunning. The colors are vibrant, the details are incredibly sharp, and the texture of the paper gives it a truly professional feel. But what I love most is that this piece is not just art—it’s a story. Every time someone visits my home, they’re drawn to the print, and it opens up a conversation about the community it came from, the young artist who created it, and the powerful mission behind Ngarra. It’s more than just a beautiful piece for my wall; it’s a meaningful connection to a larger purpose

"The craftsmanship is evident in every aspect—from the rich tones and deep contrast to the fine art paper that gives it a museum-quality finish. It’s become a focal point in my living room, and every guest who sees it wants to know more about the story behind it. Knowing that the proceeds support the community where the photograph was taken makes it even more special. This isn’t just artwork; it’s a tangible way to make a difference while adding something beautiful to your home."

The print I ordered exceeded all my expectations. The image is breathtakingly clear, and the quality of the paper adds a depth and richness that you don’t often see with online prints. It has become a cherished part of our home decor, and every time we have guests over, it sparks a conversation. People are always fascinated by the story behind the photograph, and it’s such a powerful way to share the mission of Ngarra. This isn’t just a purchase; it’s an investment in both art and community.
