Ten popular digital artists have created an NFT collection, inspired by the drawings of the little wards of the Russian charitable foundation “Butterfly Children”.

The co-authors of the NFT collection were:: star of urban public pages The village and Sobaka Vadim Solovyov, founder social project “Special World” Daniil Zuev, animator and sculptor Andrey Sikorsky, artists Daniil Makarov, Marina Stalmakova, Konstantin Uzhve, Kirill Dolgopolov, Ekaterina Kotin, Andrey Dubrovsky and Elizaveta Ilyushenko. Crypto art artists were inspired by children's drawings, who are helped by “Butterfly Children”. The creative producer of the charity drop of non-fungible tokens was the NIFTS marketplace.

“Recently we have seen many inspiring examples of relationships between NFTs and Russian NGOs. Charity is the norm for a modern socially responsible person, and artists were no exception. This not only gives us a new fundraising tool, but also helps to integrate into the metaverse, taking a step into the future today", – explained the founder and head of the “Butterfly Children” foundation Alena Kuratova.

Art objects based on drawings by young authors of the foundation - Veronica Fedorova, Daria Shinkaruk, Sasha Klimushkina, Timofey Titov and others - united by a common theme: in the center of each there are butterflies. Insects symbolize vulnerability, brightness, beauty, free flight, diversity and celebration of life.

The works are put up for charity sale with 1 by 30 June on the NIFTS marketplace in limited edition 50 NFT. Apart from NIFTS, the collection is available on Rarible and Binance platforms. All means, proceeds from the sale of NFT collections, will be transferred in favor of the wards of the NGO “Butterfly Children” Foundation.
