ACPCG

This organization does some amazing work: The American Child Photographers Charity Guild.

Their work is not specifically purposed for helping children with special needs but what they do is amazing and I just had to post about it. They volunteer their time for families with a child or other family member who is terminally ill and take pictures for the family. They even work in the NICU for a premature babies or wherever that family can and wants to go. I spent almost an hour crying while looking at pictures they had taken. These are photographers that are exceptional. I just wish I known about them years ago when my nephew had cancerous tumor the size my fist in his chest at 3 months old. Against the odds, my nephew recovered and we're celebrating his 2 year remission mark soon. Yet so many stories do not have such happy endings. What a blessing having professional quality pictures with these loved ones must be for these families.
