I had the great pleasure and honor of volunteering my photographic services for the 9th Annual Grief Relief Gala for Comfort Zone Camp (CZC) on Saturday night. Comfort Zone Camp is the nation’s largest nonprofit bereavement camp for children. They have helped guide more than 2600 children through their grief in a fun and safe environment. Lynn Hughes, you are a woman with the biggest heart I have ever seen.
As for the Gala, they had a silent auction, which I donated two portrait sessions along with many of our other fabulous Richmond based photographers. Then it was on to dinner and the really big fun auction. Wow! How wonderful and amazing it was to see so many people open their wallets and give to what I believe to be a wonderful and caring cause.
See being a cops wife I have already see the unfortunate heart break of an officer leaving his wife and children behind. I wish that one day this camp will be able to provide help for his children and for many more children in this country.
Want to start out by giving my girl Leigh a big thank you for calling me and asking for a donation. Here she is with her husband.
Here is Lynn, Frank & Stacy. Frank is a camper who opened his heart to tell us about his Mom. Stacy is Franks big buddy. This is how small this world/town can be. I actually knew Franks Mom. Franks Grandfather (PePa) was my dentist until he retired. My heart goes out to the Woolwine family.
Time for the Auction!
I think this little bad boy brought in some big $$$$. YEAH!
The theme for the night was Picture This – A World Beyond Grief. They had this photo booth, how awesome. And yes me and my trusty 2nd Erika got in and had our pictures made. I will scan them in and post later.
And here is Kelly (in the middle), Lynn’s wonderful Husband, with some fun loving and giving friends.
Thanks!
