Every single year it is a massive struggle to get hair and makeup folks to commit. Often times its the who idea of "why would I work for free when I could get paid for my time". It feels like it's an industry that would be perfect to give back in this type of event but it's been insanely difficult to wrangle them! We've tried communicating with schools but it seems that there are other Help-Portraits in our state (i didn't even know existed!!!) that have apparently took the one school and the…See More

I am making our event video intro and I would love to have a list of the 56 countries that were involved or even a map with pins where a HP event took place. If someone could get this to me it would be pretty awesome. I will be happy to share the vector file once i'm done with it for future use.See More

Hey there- can you post the CT info for your event on the group page? We need to keep the blog for general questions. Thanks!

The Ning site is pretty much as is-there's not much we can do to improve on it, unfortunately. We were hoping to use a different platform, but ran out of time. Next year will probably be a LOT more efficient and easier to navigate.

No prob- I'm the HP community administrator- should have mentioned that. ;) We try to keep the main forum for general questions and direct people to their group page for more specific info related to their area. Hope that makes sense!

Ah, your site is great and helped me to structure our own site, thanks! (www.help-portret.nl)

Well, if you could supply the form you mentioned, I would be very grateful!

Dear colleague,

My plan was to set up a website for the Help-Portrait people in the Netherlands, primarily with a forum so we can easily exchange our thoughts.
