The 4th annual Jouk Li Jou Kan Foto – 2014 Youth Photo Camp in Haiti begins July 25! Here’s our Wish List!
The phrase fast and furious is appropriate for the task upon us preparing for our fourth annual Jouk Li Jou Kan Foto. We’ve got the volunteer team and the plans, and now we need to get the funds and materials together to make this another successful summer learning program for our 32 students.
We’re really excited about the extra additions to our curriculum this year integrating the basic steps for learning about and starting a small business, resume writing, one on one computer training, continuing photo studio instruction, and more local professional guest speakers. Students will still have daily assignments including the perfect photo for a postcard.
All of our students, Guy and Jen, and the entire Jouk Li Jou Kan Foto Team appreciate the love and support over the years. Thank you for believing in us!
