Help-Portrait - Wrap-up

Saturday turned out to a great day of helping 40 individuals/families get their picture taken.   Processing was finished last night and now off to the printer.  Thanks to Pixels Photo for the printing.   While we hoped for more participants, all the counselors from the Housing Authority said we had a great turn out.  Everyone measures success differently.   The counselors expect more to come out next year.  

This morning the organizers of Help Portrait released some numbers:

36,000 portraits given by 3,002 photographers and 4,422 volunteers in 511 locations in 41 countries.

We were asked not to post, but I should get a group shot of the photogs and volunteers.
