Angels of Faith: Our Inspiration

Check out this great video for more information about why we've created our new charity, "Angels of Faith."  Please help us reach our goal of $25,000.  Read below for way that you can help!

You can participate in the "Angels of Faith" charity campaign in any of the following ways:

1.  Schedule your child to be photographed as an angel for the 2011 "Angels of Faith" calendar.  The portrait dates are July 15th, 16th, 17th, 22nd, 23rd and August 19th-21st, 2010.  Our regular session fee is $50.  For this special charity event, we ask that you consider making a $50 or more donation to Easter Seals United Cerebral Palsy in lieu of the studio session fee.

2.  Go online during the month of September to vote for your favorite angel.  With each vote, you donate $1 to Easter Seals UCP.  You can vote as many times as you would like!

3.   Order the 2011 "Angels of Faith" calendar, featuring the angels from the September voting period.  Easter Seals UCP receives proceeds from the sale of each calendar. You can order calendars, by calling the studio at (704) 873-3982.  They make great gifts for everyone.
