Haven't heard of them before. Here's some stuff on the Web...
Their apparent homesite, www.GraffitiWorkz.com
requires a password to access. Most everything else of interest
seems to be rehashings of the same following press release:

Newsgroups: school.teachers, soc.libraries.talk, uk.education.misc

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Date: Nov 6, 2001
Contact: Sandra Morgan [removed]@graffitiworkz.com
From that Little House On The Praire to your house -
Timeless Values for Children from GraffitiWorkz
Hollywood, California - Screen Actors Guild President
Melissa Gilbert has put her considerable talents behind THE
BIG IZ, a new interactive CD program which teaches important
values to children, available from www.GraffitiWorkz.com.
"We had hoped that values for children could catch on, and
it certainly has," Ms. Gilbert said. "Sales from The Big IZ
fund The Barron Foundation which donates this new electronic
book to schools across the country."
Leading psychologist, Dr. Samoan Barish calls The Big IZ,
"an important book... which opens the way for children to
turn their attention inward... (and exercise their) capacity
for sympathy, compassion and empathy. I recommend this book
not only for children, but for parents and educators as well."
GraffitiWorkz, www.graffitiworkz.com, announced the debut of
an exciting new library portal for K-12 students, teachers
and libraries today. Said Dr. Constance H. Foster, "It is
our goal to make THE COLLECTION by GraffitiWorkz available
in English and Spanish with other language translations to
be forthcoming in the near future. The GrafffitiWorkz
mission is to successfully meld education with entertainment
for all children by making available age/grade appropriate
fully annotated titles in popular digital formats."
For information or to preview THE COLLECTION contact Sandra
Morgan at [removed]@graffitiworkz.com

I also found this. I pretty strongly suspect this is another group
with no relation to the "family values" people above, but it was
too amusing in conjunction not to pass along--

<site won't let me cut and paste, so I'm retyping in part...>
welcome to the illest site of the New Millenium, Graffitiworkz Inc. This
site is run by yours truly, Coda. I hope you like this site and keep
coming back, cause we've only just begun. ...
<rest of screed is mostly begging for people to write "tutorials for
photoshop and flash4" and for "someone who can install cgi scripts
for me" and for someone with a domain who is willing to host them>
Aside from things like a "Counters" icon that doesn't work and a link
to something called http://nkillas.com/gpx that I'm not about to
explore, that's about it for said "illest site on the web" right now.
