Last Thursday, Nancy and I were very privileged to photograph to the First Annual Gimmie Awards. This was an event held by The Beam Foundation to recognize their volunteers.
What is The Beam Foundation? (excerpt from their website:)
“The Beam Foundation is a non-profit organization, whose sole purpose is to support charitable organizations in our community. Our mission is to make a difference in the lives of others and to provide individuals, families, and businesses with the means to participate in activities that generate funds for charitable organizations”
How and why did I get involved?
I was contacted by David, a former groom of mine, who is currently involved in the organization. One of the charities that The Beam Foundation supports is Jonathan’s Place and I have been a big supporter of Jonathan’s Place for many years. In fact, when I was in middle school, we went to visit the kids at Jonathan’s Place and bring them toys for Christmas so when David said the name, I was all for helping! I am very excited about directly interfacing with all of the charities that The Beam Foundation supports as well as its amazing volunteers.
David & his lovely wife Jennifer, who recently celebrated their one year anniversary. AND they are expecting twins!
