Many thanks to our new Contributing Photographer Deborah Roy for her lovely photo!  Deborah writes, “What an absolute pleasure to work with Elaine and the Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals. I discovered this wonderful nonprofit through the North American Nature Photography Association. I have long known the benefits of nature imagery to one’s mental and health status and wanted to find a way to play a role in helping others achieve this benefit. Working with Elaine made this a seamless process. She was extraordinary in her communication, very professional, and personable. I am excited to have my work benefit others around the globe. Thank you for this opportunity!”

Enjoy this lovely reflection photo by our new Contributing Photographer Paul Ferro from New Jersey!  Paul writes, “I was led to the Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals from a visit to an urgent care facility. There was a picture of the hills of Tuscany in the room I was in and it was a soothing image to me and provided comfort when I was in distress. I decided to look up the artist and that led me to Elaine and the foundation. What a great idea I thought and it inspired me to share some of my own photos one of which was selected to become part of the collection. Elaine was very supportive and helpful throughout the submission process! I am going to spread the word about the foundation to family and friends. It truly is a worthy and wonderful cause. Thank you!”

Many thanks to Minh Phan for donating his lovely photo to the Foundation! Minh comments, “I have been an intern for the Foundation from the University of Minnesota Duluth this past semester. It has been a great experience. I have contributed my photo that I took at the Gooseberry Falls to the Foundation. I’m happy to know that my photo was donated to facilities in Nepal and India. I worked with the Founder of this Foundation, and it was very inspiring.”

Welcome to our new Contributing Photographer Michael P. Doyle from South Carolina. Michael comments, “A friend introduced me to Elaine Poggi, Founder and President of The Foundation for Photo/Art in Hospitals. Elaine throughly went over what this amazing organization does. She contacted me about sending three photos for the possibility of them being displayed in a hospital somewhere in the world! I was very intrigued and was flattered when she picked one of my photos. She was so kind, helpful and very professional. I love photography and this was my first opportunity to show my photograph. Donating my first photo is exactly how I wanted to begin my profession. I owe all this to Elaine. If you want to help out a fabulous non-profit organization and you love photography please look into this foundation.”
