Durham Rescue Mission

Ok folks, here it is. I took some time, but I heard back from the Durham Rescue Mission yesterday and they are excited to have us over on december 8th.

I'm still working on more details, but as of right now, we would be setting up shop at their locations in Durham. The Women's shelter AND the men's shelter.

I woud like to provide 100% of coverage for the families assisted by the Durham Rescue Mission, that means approximately 50 females/families and 30 males (at the respective shelters) for a total of aprox. 80 singles/families.


This is a bit more than I expected, but I believe it is very doable if we have your help.

This week, I'll be waiting to hear back from YOU. please message me here or at samarcophoto@me.com and let me know your availability for 12/08, how long can you help for, the times you'd be available, what is your primary skill set and if you'd be willing do do something else.

Here's what we need in terms of support:

- Photographers
- Hair/Make UP artists
- Photo Editors
- Volunteers in general.

We are also looking for donations on Printer ink and 8x10 frames if this is something you can help with OR know someone that could either donate or sell for a discounted price.

Looking forward to hear back from you.

Thanks,
Gus

Gus it was great meeting today and I'll be working hard this week to meet the objectives we set.  Let me know if I can do anything else.  Thanks, Steve.

Hey Shane, I'm waiting to see how many volunteers we'll hear from and I'll be e-mailing everybody at the end of the week so we can move forward.

Thanks for your interest.
