this is not really a charity project, but it's a very positive, art related project, started by JR, so I thought I'd share the info anyways:

INSIDE OUT is a large-scale participatory art project that transforms messages of personal identity into pieces of artistic work. Everyone is challenged to use black and white photographic portraits to discover, reveal and share the untold stories and images of people around the world. These digitally uploaded images will be made into posters and sent back to the project’s co-creators for them to exhibit in their own communities. People can participate as an individual or in a group; posters can be placed anywhere, from a solitary image in an office window to a wall of portraits on an abandoned building or a full stadium. These exhibitions will be documented, archived and viewable virtually.

Being a "street artist" in a Singapore (the FINE city), is close to impossible! 25 years old artist was arrested recently in Singapore for her 'My Grandfather Road' signs and stickers she had in public spaces. While all signs and stickers are in harmless and light humor of the local Singaporean culture, SKL0 is looking at a jail term of up to 3 years. Here are some of her public works she's been arrested for:

More artist's works can be viewed here -> http://skl0.tumblr.com/

Now, please help the appeal, sign the petition for her release -> http://www.change.org/petitions/mica-review-sentence-of-skl0-arts-censorship-in-sg

Thank you.
