About the Project

Care in Every Image. Impact in Every Purchase.

 
We believe that purpose is fuelled by passion and vice versa. Each year, the ILA Foundation supports a non-profit association that touches the pulse of society, while stirring up our creative cravings. By channeling our creative energy into projects with a cause, we make a meaningful impact on the topics that move us. We feel grateful for the opportunity to use our resources to give back to society, and hope that our efforts will encourage others to follow suit.

ILA FOUNDATION x TEJO

Since its inception, ILA Studio has deliberately and pertinently given voice to young photographers and new creative talent. For many young people and young creatives in particular, personal development and growth entails a whole range of questions, twists and other ways of thinking that don’t always have a ready-made solution. They often do not have someone to reach out to, don't have the necessary financial resources to request therapeutic help, or experience other barriers to address their questions.

Growing from a personal story, ILA decided to have the ILA Foundation join forces with TEJO, an organisation that works day in and day out for the mental well-being of young people. Together they present the ILA Gallery, an online shop featuring 40 prints by 22 emerging and established talents.

With this initiative, ILA places the mental health of young people front and center. The proceeds from the ILA Gallery help support TEJO and their mission to provide free, accessible, anonymous mental health care for youth. By selling these prints, ILA offers a platform for artistic talent and contributes to raising awareness and improving young people’s well-being.
