Back in 1995, I was asked by UNICEF to take an image I had submitted to them and make an advent calendar out of it. I was incredibly honored. I also hadn’t a clue as to how to go about it. They sent some materials from a previous one and I just crossed my fingers and figured it out. It was a learning experience.
UNICEF reminded me of when I was in elementary and junior high school, “Trick or Treating for UNICEF“. What I remembered the most was, walking door to door with that milk carton wrapped in orange paper, and,as a little kid, feeling so empowered that something I was doing would help children in need. I never forgot it.
This project has remained one of the highlights of my career. I thought this year, I’d share it on my web site. I’ll start opening the windows tomorrow.
I hope. If this works right. This is another learning experience.
And so, during the shopping and frantic running around, parties and general mayhem of the holiday season, don’t forget there are many great organizations out there that can always use your help. So count your blessing and fling a little their way too.
Happy Holidays!
