Ladie Jaye's Designs: New changes in the Etsy Shop

Dame Johnna Crider

Johnna Crider is the Founder of Art4TheHomeless, an organization currently in the process of becoming a 501c3 Nonprofit, that unites artists of all venues to promote homeless awareness in the USA where the average age of a homeless American is 9 years old.

Johnna was once homeless at the ages of 9-11 and also during other times in her life. As an artist, she wanted to do something but at the time, all she had was her art, which blossomed into Art4TheHomeless.

In 2009, was honored by Czar Darius Adrik Salvo I with the title of Dame/Knight in the Imperial Chivalric Order of Kings of the Imperial Sovereign House of Kings for my dream to simply change the perception of homelessness in the USA and its a title that I am honored to use to help bring awareness to homelessness in the USA.

New changes in the Etsy Shop

Posted by LadieJaye and Elegance Boutique at 00:02

Until recently, I was selling jewelry online to benefit Art4TheHomeless to raise the $400 IRS Tax Exemption fee. We have had a generous donor donate the rest of the money needed to file 501c3 for Art4TH.

Also, I was selling to raise money for The Homeless Project. Each organization received 20% of all my sales. Well, due to me needing money and not selling, Both Art4TH and THP will receive 5% of each sale and I have added another homeless organization: The Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless.

I live right across the street from them and have been meaning to do more but haven't had the chance to. Anyway, I know 5% isn't much but it's all I can do at the moment.

Also, until recently, I was covering the shipping on all jewelry sales. That has also changed. It will cost $2.00 to ship in the US and $3.00 Internationally. But this is for a good cause and I am sure you guys will LOVE to see some of my newest stuff! I will be posting more tomorrow!
