Hi everyone,
This is just for those who might not have checked out Cambridge Help-Portrait's event (4-7pm).
Last year we photographed 70 Iraqi refugee families with around 20 volunteers.
We are repeating the event again this year.
Check it out:

It will be fun,

Hi everyone,
If any of you are interested in helping with an event in Lowell, we will be working with Lowell Elder Care, a Cambodian Community Center for the elderly. You can see our page at http://community.help-portrait.com/group/lowell-ma-help-portrait
P.S. If you'd like to help organize and plan please e-mail me ASAP. I'd like to try to talk sometime this weekend virtually or in person so we can figure out some of the details.
My e-mail again is howardmkang(at)gmail. Looking forward to it!
Great news, everyone! We have a location and non-profit partner! We will be working with Hyde Square Task Force in Jamaica Plain this year: http://www.hydesquare.org/
I also just finished putting up http://help-portrait-boston.com. It's not all the way complete, but I wanted to get something up and running while we recruit volunteers/talk to people about this event. I'm going to post a discussion thread (above) detailing some of our needs and then we can go from there.
Really excited!
Greetings everyone! Just wondering if any dates/locations have been picked for this upcoming year.... I'm definitely interested in being part of the Help Portrait movement here in Boston. Please message me if I can be of any help, happy to get the ball rolling just don't know where exactly we have to begin. Have anyone ever set up a meet n' green amongst the Help Portrait community members to brainstorm ideas? Obviously all of that can be done on this nifty comment wall but I was just curious if anyone has met to date and discussed any details. I'm new to all of this...and certainly look forward to being a part of it!
I live in Dorchester and am SOO excited to help out this year!
I also see notes suggesting Cambridge for location -- any other votes? (I'm kind of ambivalent personally.) People who've done this before, does it make more sense to ask them to come to us, or to try to find a room or two where they are, or... ?
Great to see responses! Still hoping Howard chimes in. ;)
if not, do people have suggestions for orgs to contact? I see notes about prior years; anyone know if those folks are still around, or have a specific contact person?
