Thank You!


Lately I’ve been amazed by all the support and help UA has been receiving from friends and family. Here are just a few people who we couldn’t do without! Thank you to…

Our family, especially Grandma who tells everyone she can about UA, our Aunt Angie for her fantastic support and enthusiasm, our cousin Steve for talking to us about non-profits and corporations.

Our friends and co-workers, who have put up flyers at their jobs, volunteered to work on our website, translated a flyer into Spanish, and gave us brilliant suggestions.

The community for spreading the word about UA, congratulating and encouraging us, and suggesting new agencies and organizations for us to reach out to.

Uncovered Artistry is truly on its way to accomplishing our mission to help domestic violence survivors discover their "inner entrepreneur," empowering them both emotionally and financially. Thanks so much to everyone who has encouraged and helped us!

“Buy” a Donation to Prevent Domestic Violence

Uncovered Artistry has officially opened shop! Available for “purchase” on our website (www.uncoveredartistry.com) are donations to prevent domestic violence. You can buy a $10 donation to Uncovered Artistry to “Provide a Survivor with a Loan to Start Her Business.” Your donation will help Uncovered Artistry provide micro-loans to its artisans. Micro-loans, which are small loans that range from $25-$300, give artisans the initial capital they need to start their businesses with Uncovered Artistry Boutique. You can also purchase at $25 donation to a domestic violence shelter. The “Give a Victim a Place to Stay” donation will support a domestic violence shelter, which provides temporary housing, counseling, and support for domestic violence victims.

These two new donation options are Uncovered Artistry’s first step to selling online. We are currently in the process of reviewing artisan applications and are hopeful that our shop will soon be filled with beautiful artisan work!
