Giving Back

Hey Everyone!! I know it has been a while since I blogged, BUT I have tons of new things coming to Christy Kennedy Photography!

First, I have recently become a photographer for a Foundation called The Gold Hope Project. The Gold Hope Project is a team of photographers that have gathered together to raise awareness of childhood cancers. There are over 300 photographers worldwide that offer their services to fighters and survivors, putting faces to facts.

Mission

More precious than the gold that represents them, children are our future.

There are twelve major types of childhood cancers. From there, they are broken down into three groups.

Leukemia's(cancer of the blood)
Lymphomas (cancer of the immune system)
Solid tumors (cancer in bones, organs, or tissue)

The Gold Hope Project is a group of photographers that have come together to capture the moments that these families holds so dear to their heart. Some of us have been touched by the presence of cancer, and some have not, but we have all been given a gift that we would like to share.

Description

Who is eligible?
Any child (infant - 18 years old) diagnosed with cancer of any form. No matter the prognosis the fight is still waged and we support you, this includes those that have won their battle with cancer.

How to apply:
Visit the website at http://goldhopeproject.com/ and fill out the application. You will be
contacted soon to begin scheduling your fighter’s
gold session.

  Each fighter will receive a customized gold session yielding at least 10 complimentary digital images, and their story will be showcased on the site and fan page.

This is an AMAZING organization, and I am proud to be a part of it! I look forward to capturing special memories for families and their fighter's.

and 2nd is not only have I been accepted as a photographer for this organization, but I have been approved to be an area coordinator! Meaning I will be matching fighter's with a photographer, getting to know local area photogs and spreading the word to other local areas and people telling them what great things The Gold Hope Project can do!!

This is a very awesome opportunity for me and a great way to give back to others!

You can help spread the word by sending others to this blog and having them fill out an application for a FREE session with TGHP!!
