We’ve been on a bit of a hiatus on the site lately due to personal circumstances, but are expecting things to liven up a bit very soon! Stay tuned and keep giving.

“I saw your post on Flickr about the give ten project and then again on Deb’s post on Facebook. I was originally planning in September to do a set of mini-sessions with a portion of the session fee going to Rainbow House locally to help families coming to town for medical treatments for their children ( a charity that served us in 2007 before we made a permanent relocation to Omaha to be closer to Children’s Hospital). Since finding out about the Give Ten Project I have decided to dedicate the entire month of September with 10% of print profits going to Rainbow House….I am really excited about this chance to give back to Rainbow House for all they do for families at a difficult time.”

the give ten project is going to have its own home on the web — you’ll soon be able to find us at www.givetenproject.org. any advice for migrating a WP blog? looks like that’s what i’ll be spending my evening on!

we thought we’d share our mission statement with you. it’s simple, really.

give ten: 10 percent of your time and profits to causes greater than yourself.

it’s a whisper to anyone who’s listening – starting with photographers around the globe. give ten. give it selflessly. give it joyfully. you *can* do it. not sure where to start? how about by giving something? the links on the right are just a few starting points. give with your camera. give with your wallet. it’s simple, gratifying and freeing.

once you start, you’ll never work the same way again. so, stop just doing business — and start giving business.

are you with us?

welcome to the give ten project

“The love we give away is the only love we keep” Elbert Hubbard

We had such a favorable response to the concept of the give ten project, we felt it needed its own space on the web. The idea is still so fresh, we’re working hard to figure things out…what specifically we want to accomplish, how we’ll get the word out, what we’ll share here, how often, etc.

But one thing is for certain, this is a small idea with hopes to make a big difference. From two to many. From our doorsteps to yours.

So pardon our dust (or rather, our creativity as Deb would say)…we’re under construction, building a foundation for good things to come.

No one’s too small to give big. Pass it on.
