The CMN telelthon is today!

Today is the CMN telethon on WBTW from noon to 8.

From a McLeod Foundation email I received:

“This year marks the 26th year of the Children’s Miracle Network Celebration Broadcast at McLeod, which celebrates the successes achieved at McLeod Children’s Hospital. These victories are made possible by families who give love and hope, McLeod physicians, nurses and ancillary staff who provide excellent care and treatment, and donors at every level who make charity care and vital equipment purchases possible.
The broadcast also recognizes the support of local groups and organizations as well as national corporate sponsors who work year round for the children treated at McLeod Children’s Hospital.
On Saturday, May 30, join the celebration from 12:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. and be a champion for children by watching WBTW News 13 and calling in your pledge to support the care of infants and children in the region at McLeod Children’s Hospital.”

I will making the first donation from the $100 Portrait Project events today. We have been able to raise $2000 in just three events! I am so excited to get on air and talk about our project and how it works to get the word out to so many new people. Be sure to watch, and continue to support the Childrens Miracle Network here in Florence.

We are so thankful to our host businesses and we really enjoyed our time at Wink. Talitha was so generous with her offer of 50% off of one pottery piece, too. I wanted to share with you some of the favorite portrait images that we created in our 10 minute sessions.

We are so thankful to those that have participated in our different events. We would also love to know what you have had printed from you digital portraits. I know many of you are planning on starting wall collections for stairways, and others are planning on larger wall portraits. Let us know!
