Through the Eyes of Haitian Teenagers
Remember the powerful, inspiring movie Born into Brothels?
If you were inspired by that, then check this out.
My friend Hillary Prag, a graduate of Seattle Pacific University and a freelance photojournalist, just finished a term in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where she taught a course in photojournalism to at-risk teenagers.
They published a beautiful book of the teens' photos.
If you buy a copy, $10 will go to earthquake-relief efforts in Haiti.
Here's Hillary's message:
[For each copy of the book sold,] I'm donating the $10 profit to relief efforts through an NGO I worked with. It's a grassroots NGO called the Mennonite Central Committee (mcc.org) and they support Haitian organizations directly. The relief will thus be non-bureaucratic and empowering to the Haitian resolve.
