New web gallery raises recovery funds for Haiti with fine art photographs
Launched today at www.printsforhaiti.com is a photo gallery sale to benefit Haiti. A partnership between Specialty Color Services, Santa Barbara, Calif., and Greg Lawler, a photographer and technology solutions consultant, the site sells fine art photographs on a sliding scale with all profit going to the American Red Cross and Direct Relief International for the Haiti relief efforts.
Prints for Haiti was the inspiration of Lawler, who decided he wanted to do more in the aftermath of the devastating Haiti earthquake than feel sad. Lawler approached various photographers about donating images, secured product fulfillment from Specialty Color Services, and built the web site.
At www.printsforhaiti.com, a special collection of images from a talented group of photographers is offered at a base price of $100, and to make donating accessible on any budget, discount codes are provided. After $10 per print is subtracted toward production and shipping, all remaining funds are donated 50/50 to the American Red Cross and Direct Relief International. Volunteers will provide the labor to pack and ship the orders. Recipients will receive finest quality silver halide Chromira prints on archival paper with an estimated lifespan of 100 years or more.
