Picture This: Asking for Help

We are sending out this letter to people that we know overseas. If you are interested in helping us out, send this to your friends, or get started yourself.

Hi! We are a high school Destination Imagination team from Austin, Texas. In our project this year, we are trying to spread cultural awareness through pictures. We strive to expand our community’s awareness of cultural differences, as well as similarities. We are working to connect with children from around the world, through an adult friend, and have them send us pictures of their life and their adventures, so we can share it with our community. In this way, we can document our generation through pictures and words. We want to share these pictures with our friends and have our friends share it their friends. We want to give the world a chance to realize that the people that we share this earth with are more similar than we think.

We would like you to help us with our project. Ask a younger person to take pictures of their daily lives, and send us a reply email with their pictures. We may also be able to send a disposable camera to children who don’t have access to a digital camera. Our only concern is that the scanning in transit of our disposable camera may prevent the pictures from developing properly. If you are interested and have questions, please email us back. We would greatly appreciate your help with our project. Thanks!

Thanks again,
