    Project description:

    Hi! 

    My name is Hadi, and I’m the founder of Theunknownartist, a newly founded non-profit based in Canada. The son of a first-generation immigrants from Lebanon, I always knew that my parents gave me a privilege that millions of people dream of. After working in the entertainment industry, and witnessing firsthand the injustice, inequality, discrimination, and barriers that many artists face in developing countries. Additionally, I knew that I have the experience and knowledge to help and create a change within the industry, and so I started the organization. 

    The platform is very simple, yet it will change the lives of thousands if not millions of people worldwide, and it will fully sustain the organization and fund our mission for years to come. 

    Our goal is to provide the support and resources for talents (artistic, academic, athletic). So how is our platform going to do that? 

    Firstly, our organization has developed various programs fit for all talent needs. Through our platform, anyone that meets our eligibility requirements will be able to fill out a detailed application and send it back to us. Accepted applicants will then go through our 1-year program that will consist of full access to our platform, workshops, courses, personal lessons by a qualified instructor of said talent, financial aid to buy everything necessary to practice said talent, and full guidance by our team.  Additionally, we connect applicants who are in need with licensed mental health/ Legal professional.

     

    – Artwork selling and portfolio: struggling/new artists will be able to sell their artwork and we help them create their portfolios through our platform without fear of being scammed or losing money, while earning trust from new clients. Our organization will act as an escrow and take payments from the client and only release the payment to the artist once the client has received their request work, while not taking any service fee from the artist. This will also give comfort for clients to trust newer artist knowing that we will guarantee they receive the work they wanted. Additionally, we will provide promo codes for the artist that they can give to clients to encourage them in supporting them. The discounts will be covered by us, and not deducted from the artist. Furthermore, we will help the artist market themselves, and promote new artist on our social media.

    – Communities and social media: Our platform will have a community for each talent that users can join and be part of. These communities will be specific to talents in certain areas, which will help support each other and connect talents with each other.

    – Education: We will provide free access to fully custom-made courses designed to help applicants with no access to education, a way to start a career in various profession. Additionally, we will provide access to blog, research, podcast, and stories of talents around the world.

    The list will go on and on, and it goes beyond the platform. Eventually, I want to build schools, institutes, academies etc. in rural areas that have no access to one. I would love to talk with you and tell you more about the organization and our mission, and how we will help.  

     

     I am not looking for just some volunteer who will program for us, what I’m looking for is someone who shares my passion for art and education and will be equal to be within the organization. You will be added as a director to our organization. I want you to voice your concerns, and opinions towards this project. This is an opportunity for us both to create something big that will give deserving talents a chance to shine.

    I have already started this project firstly through python/Django, and then created through wordpress, by hiring a developer and funding the project entirely on my own. However, due to my lack of tech experience, and funding, I have been struggling to continue the project.  I believe continuing the project through python, java, C++ or any other language would be better and gives us more freedom to work with it, but you know better. You will be entirely in charge of everything tech related. 

    I really hope this will be a wonderful opportunity to connect with a great developer who we can grow together. Thank you, and I look forward to meeting you!
