H-P Chicago, hi

I'm new to the area, living near the NW Loop, and want to get involved with the community. I would love to help with the December 10th  HP event, however I will be out of pocket in November, back December 1st.  I can email, phone etc to stay in connected.  I can hit the ground running when I return-just need to know the plans.  You can see my work at PeteHillPhoto.com. I learned about this event through my Charlottesville VA Meetup Group.

Hi all!

I am volunteering at the Precious Blood Ministry of Reconciliation in the Back of the Yards neighborhood in Chicago. This organization works with victims and perpetrators of gang violence seeking reconciliation - Youth and mothers who have lost a child because of the violence (Mothers for Peace). I would like to offer this site as a possibility to host a HP event on December. More info about this organization at http://www.pbmr.org or send me an email to jacunag@gmail.com.

Peace.

Juan

Hi Juan,

I grew up in Back of the Yards community and it would be cool if we could help out at your organization. Have you heard from anyone yet?

Hi Alejandra, no, nobody has replied yet. If you are interested we can start making some plans. I already talked with the staff of PBMR and they liked the idea. I think it would be very powerful and meaningful for the mothers having a picture with their kids and also the youngsters.

I agree Juan. It would be something very special and it would really mean something to me to be able to help these women/families from my old neighborhood. Let me see if I can get some of my photography friends interested and maybe pull in some of my old Seward friends into this effort.

Have you ever done an H-P before? This would be my first one.

Thanks Alejandra for your interest and I am sure the people from your old neighborhood will appreciate it . It would be great if we can make this happen. This is my first H-P too. Let´s keep in contact.
