ABOUT GOODWILL PAINTING
Goodwill Painting is a non-profit project initiated by a undergraduate student, Jetson Wu, at Pepperdine University in Malibu, CA. The goal of this project is to raise money and awareness for children who suffer from domestic violence, experience poverty and are abused physically, emotionally, and mentally. Jetson raises funds by selling his watercolor paintings, and all of the revenues go to the donation pool of Hollygrove, a previous orphanage but now the Los Angeles division of Uplift Family Services.
ABOUT HOLLYGROVE
Background, history and goal
Hollygrove is the Los Angeles division of Uplifts Family Services. It was founded in 1880 as the Los Angeles Orphans Home Society. It was a residential group home for foster children (including Marilyn Monroe) until 2005. In 2005 Hollygrove merged with what is now Uplift Family Services, the largest statewide agency devoted to serving children in crisis, including foster children, transitioning from a group home setting serving 80 children to now serving nearly 1,200 children and their families each year, both on campus, in schools and in the home. The mission of Hollygrove is to do what ever it takes to strengthen and advocate for children, families, adults and communities to realize their hopes for behavioral health and well-being.
JETSON WU
I am an international undergraduate student at Pepperdine University. Currently, I am pursuing a sports medicine degree and I aspire to be a pediatrician. I am a watercolor painting enthusiast, and I decided to share my passion in art in a unique way: through fundraising for childcare services.
GENERAL QUESTIONS
The Answers You Need
HOW DO I PURCHASE PAINTINGS FROM YOU?
It is very simple! I post all my paintings on this website and on instagram. All you need to do is to shoot me an email or message me on Instagram about the particular piece/pieces that you would love to purchase. I will then give you an estimated price. From there, you can send money to my paypal account, and I will deliver it to your hand!
WHERE DOES THE MONEY GO TO?
This is a non-profit project. Therefore, 100% of the revenue I made will go toward Hollygrove. Information about this organization can be found in previous page "About Hollygrove".
HOW DO I KNOW IF THE MONEY GO TO HOLLYGROVE?
I will make sure to send you a confirmation from Hollygrove about your fund being delivered to the kids in need!
IF I WANT SOMETHING ELSE OTHER THAN THE PAINTINGS SHOWN, MAY I COMMISSION YOU?
Absolutely! The paintings I posted are just some random stuff that I have painted in the past. You are more than welcome to tell me what you would like and I will do my best to make you a piece!
WHAT DO YOU PAINT?
As you may see, I mostly paint animals and creatures. I can also paint some landscapes, but I am not good at painting portraits. Therefore so far I am not offering to paint portraits.
