Phyllis' Photo Fundraiser

Phyllis’ Photo Fundraiser 

Make a donation of $150 or more to an organization helping deal with the fallout of coronavirus in these difficult times and choose which of the 13 photos you’d like to receive.  It will be 8 x 10 in size and mounted on black foamboard, with sawtooth hooks provided for you to attach to the back for hanging.  I'll remove the watermark unless you tell me not to.

For my printing and mounting, I will be using Nations Photo Lab, based in Maryland.  Not only do they make beautiful prints but they are devoting resources to manufacturing face shields for health care workers:   https://www.nationsphotolab.com/ppe   

For the first 15 people, I’ll cover the cost of printing and shipping (a little less than $22).  After that, I’ll ask for reimbursement for printing and shipping costs.  

For any donation greater than $150 (in increments of $50), I will donate a 20% match to your organization of choice, up to an aggregate total for me of $750. (Kind of like an out-of-pocket limit in your health insurance plan!)

Here are the steps to take:

(1) Make your donation directly to the organization (and get any tax benefits as well).

(2) Email/message me with a photo or scan of the receipt to the organization (or a “go fund me” type donation).  Pgk313@gmail.com

(3) Choose your photo and let me know which one you’d like.  Unless you tell me otherwise, I'll remove the watermark with my name.

(4) After the first 15 people, I’ll let you know the actual costs of printing and shipping and will ask you to send to me via check, PayPal or Venmo

(5) Your mounted photo will be shipped to you by Nations Photo Lab via USPS or FedEx ground (be patient, everything is taking longer these days, so could be up to a few weeks)
