I know you've all seen the disaster/trauma that's been developing in Japan. It truly breaks my heart that any human being has to go through such heart ache. I am constantly thinking of the children looking for a family member and the ache that goes with the parents' search for a child. We are all touched in our own way. I have a cousin living in the Southern part of Japan, so thankfully, he and his family are safe. My son also has a friend who has family there as well.
I know that every channel/internet site has a way of donating relief to Japan. I think it's our own way of feeling like we are doing some good. I am writing my own check this week and I'm sure many of you are as well. I wanted to offer a way for my clients to donate as well as get something in return. All profits from sales this week (March 19-March 26) will go directly to World Vision and Save the Children charity groups. I have looked extensively on these groups and how they use their funding. I feel like many groups need the money right now, but I'm specifically targeting the ones helping the children this week. I just think of my own 9-year old son and the fear he would have, alone in the destruction, searching for us. That thought truly terrifies me. So this is why I've chosen these groups.
So if you've been wanting to order reprints, or haven't had the time to order from your session, this week is the week to do that. All profits will be sent to Japan and in return you'll get that warm, fuzzy feeling that you've helped those children and the portraits you've been wanting to order anyway!
