Help Portrait A few weeks ago, Jason Fobart of APA Atlanta, contacted me and asked me if I could help with a charity project here in the inner city. Living downtown and having our business based here, I feel a strong connection to the people I see everyday on the streets that we share. During the year we do a little here and there where we can, but this was a chance to bring some joy into a few lives that really could use a boost. When Jason explained the cause and what the organization was trying to accomplish on an international level we jumped in with both feet and offered as much as we could possibly do to help with this cause. I can go on and on in words to describe this day but I think that it is better to watch it in video. From APA Atlanta’s Help Portrait About Help Portrait Across the World Sometimes it is easy take so much for granted in our lives. I asked one young man why his address wasn’t filled out and he stated that he didn’t know his Mom’s address. I dialed his mom’s number and handed him my phone. When the line picked up I heard the joy in his voice ” Hi mom! It’s me James…… yes…… yes……. I am doing fine…….” The conversation went on but I didn’t want to eavesdrop. But the tone of James’ voice said it all. It was what we were trying achieve here that day. Photographers using their talents to provide a little bit of joy, pride, or hope this holiday. I want to thank all those who “let” us give them something on Saturday, because in return……….. they gave us so much more. – Dave Gallagher Note: if you’re viewing this in an RSS feed or from an iPhone RSS please click here to view the video.
