“Your Picture’s Worth 1000 Words” IRIS Literacy Fundraiser this October!

As the saying goes, if you can read this…thank a teacher.  Well, we want to help those teachers in the Hartford area help their students to read and write better.  So we created a fundraiser to benefit participating West Hartford schools (Bugbee, Norfeldt, Lollipop Tree Preschool and more) and Hartford’s Grace Academy, an independent school dedicated to providing a quality, tuition-free education to girls from low-income families residing in Hartford’s inner city neighborhoods.

Jane’s an avid book reader (and book club member) and for the past five years I’ve tutored adults at Literacy Volunteers of Greater Hartford.  And with two grade school boys we see firsthand the importance of a strong start in literacy.  We tend to take our literacy for granted but for many children it can be a big challenge to bring all the skills together to read and write proficiently–your help is most appreciated!

You can see all the details below…if you haven’t had a professional portrait taken of your family lately, please contact us at info@photoiris.com or 860.803.2401 to schedule an October session today!  Many thanks!!
