Here is the snippet from Candy Sparks' blog:

in other news i volunteered time at help-portriat today in harrisburg... for some homeless and shelter ladies... they had some of there kids along... so candy was able to play with the kids... i posed everyone and played with those kids until smiles appeared... i loved it... took some candid shots... and i plan on making a book on snapfish or lulu for the mission center... so the ladies can remember this day forever... i love the fact that i was able to give back with my art! i won't be able to post pictures for this only because we were asked not too... it was not for personal gain but for heartfelt gain... and that warms my soul...

Also, read Candy's mom cause. Let's focus on giving this Christmas season.

And Candy, thank you for bringing smiles to the life of people at Bethesda Mission Women's Shelter.

Update: I forgot to add that Candy is a photographer herself, but willing to help where she is needed most. She took the role of making people smile and capturing the event through candid shots.
