Partnerships
1
our model
We partner with arts-focused nonprofits to create fundraising programs through co-branded merchandise. Our mission is to raise awareness about the importance of the arts in culture while promoting your brand and providing a new, effortless revenue stream.

How Does the Collaboration Highlight the Power of the Arts?
All our products carry the message, "Arts are the infrastructure for the soul." Through items like t-shirts, mugs, and other visuals, we aim to remind the public of the essential role that the arts play in enriching humanity. We believe this will help all arts-focused organizations over time to build awareness and fundraising.

How Does the Collaboration Support Your Brand?
Our products can be co-branded with your logo and messaging, allowing you to join a powerful movement alongside other leading nonprofits. This partnership helps showcase your commitment to the arts and reinforces the cultural value they bring to society.

Is it possible to co-brand?
Definitely. We want to share the important work of arts organizations with the world. Nearly all of the items in our store can have the logo of a partner arts organization added to the item. The partner organization would receive all of the net proceeds from the sale of these items. By sharing email lists and driving traffic to our website, organizations can engage their supporters to celebrate the organization and financially support it.

How Does the Partnership Raise Funds for Nonprofits?
While many nonprofits have logos and merchandise, few actively leverage these products as a revenue stream. We provide a turnkey email campaign that directs your donors and supporters to our website, where they can purchase co-branded merchandise featuring your logo. All proceeds from these sales will be donated directly back to your nonprofit. Alternatively, if you'd like, we can work with your existing email list (which we will handle confidentially and use only with your approval) to reach out to your community.

Can I simply make a contribution?
We discourage direct contributions, but rather encourage you to support your favorite local arts organization, particularly their programs for disadvantaged youth.
Nevertheless, if you prefer making a direct contribution to Arts - Infrastructure - Soul Foundation, mail your check c/o Mike Kurzman, P.O. Box 3995, Barrington, IL 60011.

Is it possible to buy in bulk at a discount and market directly to our supporters?
Yes. We are able to offer special orders and bulk discounts for any purchase exceeding $5,000. Depending on the items ordered, we expect the pricing of your order to be approximately 20% below standard market costs. This should allow you to average a 125% markup on MSRP sales pricing.
