Industry = Small Business

Press Release Summary = Young internet entrepreneurs are leading the way in bringing
social responsibility to the forefront of business practices.

Press Release Body = Young entrepreneurs may be driving a change in the very culture
of entrepreneurship, where personal values and ideals are brought to the forefront
of the business model. Newly launched online art service PascoePopArt.com has
integrated international aid as a core component of its business. The internet
site, which specializes in Warhol-inspired canvas artworks from digital photos,
donates 10% of the proceeds of every sale directly to the renowned international aid
organisation, Medecins Sans Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders).

"I think a lot of new online e-commerce concepts currently enjoy a fair amount of
flexibility in combining their personal ideals with their profit margins," director
Matt Pascoe said. "This can allow you to incorporate charity as a permanent
component of your outgoings". Once they'd decided on their charity and how much they
could afford from each sale, the donation process was simply absorbed into their
e-commerce model.

PascoePopArt.com, which is based in Brisbane, Australia and began operating in early
November 2006, re-invents digital or scanned photos as canvas-printed works of
"Pop-Art". Through fine art drawing and graphic techniques, the artist creates a
vibrant, stylized portrait based on the customer's specifications. The customer is
secure in knowing that no payment is required until the final artwork is viewed and
approved for printing. "We really want the customer to feel confident purchasing
Pascoe Pop Art online. A lot of online businesses seem to entice their customers
with low prices, then add on the hidden extras at the end. We figure, if you operate
honestly and professionally, and offer a quality service, everybody wins," said
Matt. Pascoe Pop Art offers free shipping world-wide.
