Post Partum Health Alliance has joined us a partner organization! PHA is a San Diego based organization who provides support groups, information, a "warmline", and other support services that remind moms who are going through post partum difficulties: "You are not alone."
Post Partum Health Alliance is an all-volunteer organization that does not receive any government funding. Their sole source of financial support is donations from private citizens.

New Partner Organization!
We're very excited to announce that we have a new partner at Giving by Design.
Black and Missing but Not Forgotten is a blog dedicated to missing black women in America whose stories are often overlooked in mainstream media. This blog is run by a wonderful woman named Deidra who has covered literally thousands of cases since she started Black and Missing nine months ago. She is also spreading a campaign to promote awareness of missing African-Americans.
What Deidra needs to continue her important work is the resources to expand her operation, to reach a wider audience, and to create a sustainable infrastructure so that her work can continue even if life takes her in a different direction.
Here's what you can do to help.
-Add Black and Missing as a Friend on MySpace
-Help Deidra set up a News Feed by emailing kiltedliberal@mac.com
-Link to Black and Missing on you're blog
-Recommend Deidra's video on YouTube
-Or Donate to Black and Missing's Chip-In Campaign
We're honored to be partnering with a cause like Black and Missing but Not Forgotten and we look forward to helping further their mission and ours.

Giving by Design: Some clarifications
1) It was brought to our attention this morning that we did not include a notice about not allowing design's under copyright to be submitted or sold on our website unless you own the design or have documented permission to use the design. It is important to respect each other as artists which includes not using other people's intellectual property without permission. This will be corrected on our application this evening.
2) We have also been approached about not including art related posts on the blog more often. That is something we will definitely address as our official launch grows closer, since we will be in a better position to feature the emerging artists who will be appearing on our site. We'll try to do better on that score in the meantime.
3) For new readers, if you are unaware of our methods, the blog posts that are not related to art are related to the partner organizations that we support. We do not list any organizations that we would not feel comfortable being personally associated with and therefore we want to do all we can to promote their causes. In the end we're offering people a chance to make a tangible difference in the world simply by doing what they love to do; creating art. Blogging about issues relevant to our partner organizations is one of the ways we can further that goal.
