Carnival Gala

Last night I did some photography at Street Angel's Fundraising Gala.

They are an incredible organization who help impoverished women in the slums of Brazil keep their children off the streets, safe at home, healthy and in school.

Last time I was in Brazil I spent a month doing some photography in the community and taught photography to at-risk teenage girls with disposible cameras. It felt great to help out, and I was amazed both by how hard the people at Street Angels work and by how much they have done for the community, from providing them with running water to building a school.

They're definately a great organization to support and they are always looking for more help, whether as a volunteer, fostering a child or even just donations, so check out their site: www.streetangels.ca
