f/STOP Cancer contest

Exciting news!! A photo that I took of my nephew, Matthew, is one of the winners of the f/STOP Cancer contest and is going to be featured in a calendar!  100% of the proceeds benefit the Gift of Life Foundation (www.giftoflife.org)!


Gift of Life helps to find matches for patients in need of a bone marrow transplant. They're a great organization and I've volunteered with them several times.  So many of us have been affected or know someone who has been affected by cancer.  Gift of Life has succeeded in finding matches for nearly 2400 people and last year's calendar raised over $25,000 to get them closer to their goal of a match for anyone, anytime.
The calendars can be purchased online at http://www.co-store.com/theSILVERproject.  They are $25 each, which I know is a little expensive for a calendar, but did I mention that all of the proceeds benefit the Gift of Life Foundation?!  Besides, it's that time of year - you're going to need a new calendar soon anyway :-)  Even if you aren't able to purchase one yourself, please forward this information around to family and friends who might be interested. It's a great cause and you can brag that you know one of the photographers :-)

Thank you!!!
