We team up with the volunteers and children of Dasom Ministries Orphanage to create our collections of unique and thought-provoking charity artworks.
Backed by the creative power of kids’ boundless imaginations and advanced generative art technology, these creations are minted and printed to help build their brighter futures.

The Beginning
Our 6,050-piece inaugural collection features both edition and 1/1 digital artworks on the Ethereum blockchain.
Thanks to a 7% royalties model, every sale and resale in the Umoja marketplace generates continuous resources and developmental support for the kids who imagine every piece.
GIVING BACK WITH A GORGEOUS RECEIPT
Acquiring a print represented on in the blockchain means your ownership of that artwork is immutable. Bring home a beautiful piece and receive its corresponding NFT with zero fees.
Whether you trade it on the blockchain or sell it in the real world, you can rest assured that piece is truly yours.
Our mission is simple:
direct impact.
STEP I
Secure land and guarantee a permanent home
We worked directly with our Kampala, Uganda-based partner Dasom Ministries Orphanage to secure their land and ensure a future free from displacement.
2
Create a source of income and become self-reliant
Thanks to a steady flow of critical resources, the orphanage is provided the proper foundation to become self-sustainable and create opportunities for growth. Together, art becomes a catalyst for lasting change.
3
Build toward a brighter future
As we grow and modernize the philanthropic space through our unique blend of soulful art, web3, and charity, we intend to expand our efforts across Uganda, Africa, and the globe at large.
STEP II
