Helping those in need

Hi Friends!

I just want to share something with you today that's heavy on my heart. Soon, I will have the privilege of photographing this beautiful family who have adopted two gorgeous children from Ethiopia. They have started an organization called Perpetual Change that advocates for needs in Africa. They are now supporting an orphanage in Hosanna, Ethiopia. This little orphanage is small (4 bedrooms), and 23 children sleep on the floor in this uninsulated building right now, and it is winter there.
Here's a link for more info or to donate: http://theperpetualchange.me/Beeminet.html

Jeff & Bethany are asking that you give anything. Even just $5 to help these children goes a long way in Ethiopia. I just picture how heart broken I'd be to see my own child cold, in the winter time, without adequate clothing or bedding. And since these children have no mom and dad to love on them, we can help care for them. Don't you wish you could be there to wrap an arm around them too? Maybe donate enough to wrap a blanket around them instead. It would bless their little hearts.

Much love,
Bethany
