Every year Friendly House Community Center puts on an amazing auction–Swing into Spring– that raises money for their non-profit organization. This year’s theme for the auction was honoring 80 years of childhood.

Friendly House creates a thriving community by connecting people of all ages and backgrounds through quality educational, recreational and other life-sustaining services.  I see it first hand and I am lucky enough to say I that am a part of it.  I work for their after school program where I have the opportunity to teach 4th and 5th graders photography and some of their photos were auction items!   Here are just a few shots of the night and be looking in the Oregonian for some others.

Andy Furgeson, Director of the after school program, Friendly Chaps, has brought the program to an amazing height with his enriching ideas and passion for education.

Vaune Albanese, Executive Director of Friendly House,  has been a part of the organization for over 20 years and she puts her heart and soul into it and it shows!

Photos from my photography students and frames made by all the after school students.

With engagement shoots, weddings, events and a trip to SF this month my blog posts have been a little spaced. But keep checking back and leaving those nice comments! :)

Cheers!
