About the Project

Our Portraits of Connection initiative provides a small but meaningful moment of joy and an enduring memento for families who might otherwise go without. Families will receive a professionally captured portrait of their loved ones during a free, outdoor, two-day community event.

This project is an investment in human dignity, family pride, and community well-being.
