Article: PROJECT X

Anthony Aquino has been running a photography course at Queensbury High School since 2009 and every year he works with around 100 kids. That same year he became aware of the organization Help-Portrait, which takes professional photographers like celebrity photographer Jeremy Cowart (Who also founded it) and they use their skills to help those less fortunate. The organization has inspired volunteer photographers to visit rescue missions, halfway houses, recovery programs, food kitchens, homeless shelters, churches and other sites in their communities and create special portraits of people that aren't fortunate to have pictures of themselves. So he took his students to a soup kitchen and had them partake in this program and they say it has changed their lives. This is very inspirational.
