This is our official “week off” from going through entries but everyone is still going to have the opportunity to share their photos through a special “My Story In Photos” linky.
At our Photo Walk Across America in June, Angie had the privilege of meeting several photographers (Amanda and Melissa) in Columbus, OH who are passionate about their involvement in a wonderful charity called Inspiration Through Art (Littlest Heroes Project). This charity centers around Professional Photographers taking photos for families of children who are ill and Amanda and Melissa actually first met each other when Amanda volunteered to take photos of Melissa’s family (whose son is fighting childhood cancer.)
In honor of this charity, we’d like everyone to link in with a “My Story In Photos” about a way that you have used your photography to help someone else with a Random Act of Kindness. Whether you have taken photos for a family that has someone who is ill, or gave prints of your floral photos to an elderly person, or shot a wedding for someone who couldn’t afford to pay you…tell us your story! We know that we have the most generous photographers in the world visiting with us each week and we’d love to hear about how you are blessing others with your gift of photography.
To participate please…
1) Include our button in your post
2) We’d love for you to use the Littlest Heroes Project button (above) in your post and give a shout-out to this awesome charity as well.
Since this is a non-competition week, you can have as many photos as you’d like in your post and those photos can also be used again in one of our upcoming challenges if you haven’t already entered them before. The Linky Tool will also be kept open for entries all week long!

So Glad I found your website!
It’s heartwarming to know there are others out there working to make this a Better World!
I have thoroughly enjoyed this challenge. Some I♥Faces has some very charitable members. You all make me want to try harder. Thanks

Thanks for such a great opportunity to share this week!
My entry this week is for a future fundraising project that I really need some advice on how to get started! If you have a minute PLEASE check out link #27 (“***HELP!”) where there are more details, because I would REALLY like to be able to use do some good with my fairly new-found love of photography. Thanks so much!

I agree. Reading the entries has inspired me to do more, and not all of it has to be photography related.
OMGoodness, I can’t stop reading these stories!! This may be the FIRST week that I actually DO make it through EVERY SINGLE entry!!
Seriously, we need to make this a theme for often! This is SO inspiring! As much I do for others, this has inspired me to do MORE!
