Our Volunteers!
Local photographer Alan Newton joined Child and Family Services' 75th Anniversary Committee to help us decide the ways we would celebrate this milestone year. He thought that a photographic journey through foster care and adoption that was portable and could be displayed in many locations throughout the year would be a great way to take the message about our work to the wider community.
Alan enlisted the help of other photographers to capture our families for the project. Along with Alan, participating professionals included Don Rutt, Elizabeth Price, Karen Youker, Bill Lancaster, and Sarah Brown. Their photos now grace the six portable panels, the walls of our conference room and hallways, and the homes of our families themselves.
Thanks to all these generous photographers for putting their skills to use in this wonderful way!
