Try This: Take Free Christmas Portraits

During the holiday season, give a photograph to those who don’t have the resources to take photos of themselves. (Think the homeless, single parents, military vets.) Each year in early December, founder Jeremy Cowart’s Help-Portrait initiative brings volunteers to serve others by photographing, printing and delivering portraits of these people. Ask photographers in your church to take up the cause on behalf of the church.
