I'm not sure if I'm in the right area to post this but is there a group in the Bronx this year?

For anyone stopping by this board before we get in gear in the fall, this year's Help Portrait is on Saturday, December 8.

The organization also just put out a call asking everyone to donate $5 to keep it operational: https://help-portrait.donortools.com/my/funds/14403--Help-Portrait-...

Not sure how to find an "organizer" for a location (Not sure I can pull it off on my own, though I know photographers and make-up artists who would get involved) but I am the Dir of Comm for one of NYC's largest organizations helping the homeless. We have several shelters and long-term housing for those who were homeless and live with mentall illness. I know our clients could benefit from this in a big way if someone is looking for a site to organize around.

Hey guys! There's no real organizer of this in New York. A few people in the area choose locations and then do a call for volunteers. It all comes together a couple of months ahead of the official December date, which gets announced later in the year.

I know I'll be planning to organize a group for a women's shelter in Brooklyn, and will probably start putting it into action in September. I'm going to need several photographers who have gear (lighting), and several people who have computers and printers, among many other things. So if you're interested, feel free to get in touch with me in September and I'll be happy to put you to work!

I am new to the project and the group.  Would love to get involved.  Are there any group meetings/hangs planned.  Not sure how this community works.  :)

Is this group still active? And does anyone know anything about the event in December?
