We're looking for a volunteer photographer to help document the Pablove Shutterbugs 5-Week Program this Spring.
The mission of The Pablove Foundation is to invest in under-funded, cutting-edge pediatric cancer research and improve the lives of children living with cancer through the arts.
Pablove Shutterbugs, a program of The Pablove Foundation, teaches children living with cancer to develop their creative voice through the art of photography. In an educational setting, the five-week program instructs children to tell their story through photographs using perspective, light, composition, and technique. Our Shutterbugs are taught basic principles of photography while learning on digital point-and-shoot cameras provided by Pablove, and reflect on their work. The cameras are theirs to keep at the end of the course.
This is a flexible opportunity! The classes will take place for 5 Saturdays: April 6, April 13, April 20, April 27 + May 4, 2019 ; volunteer hours are from 10:30am-12:30pm . Volunteers will be expected to commit to the 4-hour timeframe of these classes. You do not have to attend all sessions to help out. All volunteers will undergo a background check.

Mission Statement
The Pablove Foundation addresses childhood cancer through a unique art + science approach. Our mission is to improve the lives of children living with cancer through the arts and invest in underfunded, cutting-edge pediatric cancer research. Pablove Shutterbugs, our signature photography program for kids 6-18 living with cancer, has served nearly 1,500 students in eight cities across the country, and we’ve provided $2.8 million in seed funding for daring pediatric cancer researchers on the leading edge of their fields worldwide.
Description
Pablove's story began in 2008, when Pablo Thrailkill Castelaz was diagnosed with bilateral Wilms Tumor, a rare form of childhood cancer. After 13 months of treatment, Pablo passed away just six days after his sixth birthday. The whole extended community affected by his diagnosis - friends, teachers, classmates and neighbors - wrapped its collective arms around him and his family. Their love inspired the start of The Pablove Foundation, and we've been fighting childhood cancer with love ever since.
