The Cause: 

Dear friends and fellow community neighbors,

During this time of unprecedented change in our world we can be left with a feeling of helplessness. I would love to offer a bridge between that helpful energy in your heart and the amazing community helper, SoWashCo CARES (South Washington County, Community Action Reaching Every Student.) The goal of SoWashCo CARES is to encourage and support community to give help and get help in their local community.  This organization is vital to our community in that they are a touch stone for families in need. You may be surprised to learn that within our district:

 -We have many children on  the free/reduced lunch program. Many of these families depend on the school system for daily meals and nutrition.

-We have many children whom do not have the necessary or appropriate attire for our many seasons, especially winter.

-We have children who are homeless.

These facts are even more critical now amidst the ongoing pandemic. Our schools are closed and people are experiencing job loss and lack of resources. SoWashCo Cares continues to support and show up for our community, meeting the basic needs that all of our students deserve. 

The Project:

#TheFrontStepsProject was launched by a Massachusetts photographer who wanted to help support the need in her community. It’s simple,  you get five minutes with your family on your front steps/porch in an effort to document this historical yet crazy time in our lives. This is a fun, quick way for you to create whatever your snapshot at this moment in time looks and feels like to your family.  You just have to remain on your steps/porch. I will be using my long lens (which is the one I prefer anyway!) to support social distancing and keep us all safe. I will then send two digital files for you to keep in exchange for your good faith donation to my local cause, SoWashCo Cares.  I ask you to consider a minimum donation of $35 but feel free to give at your comfort level.

Thank you for your support! 

Thank you for making an impact!

 Thank you for being a helper!

We are all in this together.

Sincerely,

Jennifer
