Dreamaid Charity

The Dreamaid Charity is a non profit organisation which will help people in poorer countries to get their products to markets outside their normal reach. We will employ local staff and will provide the necessary internet access, computers and cameras to allow people in poorer countries to sell their artworks online.
This will enable poorer people to make more money than they can by selling within their own area and also reduce the amount they have to sell through agents (who sometimes take a very large profit).
It is not uncommon for artworks to pentuple in price from leaving the village to arriving in the nearest town. This price can again triple or more by the time it reaches a Western buyer meaning that the originator may only be seeing 7% of the purchase price. We aspire to see that figure rising to as much as 90% of a significantly higher price by using the strategy and technology available to us through Dreamaid.
