WALK FOR MS | Fraser Valley Photographer Kim Mallory

May 3, 2010 7:58 PM

We had an absolutely gorgeous sunny Sunday last weekend  (totally unexpected).  So it was just a pleasure shooting the MS Walk, which I have been doing every year for the last several years as a volunteer.   The MS Walk helps to raise money for the cure and awareness.   It’s also a fun time for the family with food and entertainment.   The walk is 5 km or 10 km if you want to run it.  You can take your kids, your dog and enjoy ice cream and other treats at the rest stops along the way.   I drove the walk since I had to shoot it…  (I know I know, you try carrying that camera 5 kms..)  My kids tried to hijack my car at one point because they were “tired”   Brother!   Anyway, I made them finish the walk.. and we met at the finish line.   It was a great day.

A GOOD CAUSE | Kim Mallory Photography

April 15, 2010 9:24 PM

Sheesh, I have so many posts to make and so little time these days!    I need to post about this foundation that I came across today though. The Tiny Sparrow Foundation a non-profit organization dedicated to providing lasting memories through the beautiful art of photography to the families with children who are facing life threatening illnesses.

This very thing has been on my mind lately. I believe that every day is a gift.  Nothing stays the same and you just never know where life is going to take you.   I am fortunate at this moment to have a happy and healthy family but there are so many people out there that have had the shock and devastation of  their children getting sick with the unimaginable possibility and sometimes eminent reality of death….

So… I am helping Lidia at The Tiny Sparrow Foundation spread the word and it is my promise to her that I will put my talents to good use and help those in my community with sick kids by providing them with pictures of hope..  if you know of anyone that could benefit from this offering, please let me know.

In the meantime…  here are some of Lidia’s images and a donation button if you feel so inclined.

Meg Reid - Hi Kim,

I’m friends with Kathryn Scott…we met a few weeks ago at shoppers. I have about 12 toddler videos… Dora, Leapfrog, Baby Einstein, Disney Sing a longs. Some are never used. Also, I have a Baby Bjorn soft sided back carrier… my two and a half year old still fits but we never use it. Some toys too as we are moving Saturday and I’ll be packing the playroom.

Could you use these?

admin - Hi Meg! Nice to hear from you!! Yes we could use it all!!! Thanks so, so much!!

What would be the easiest way to get that to you? I could pick up or you could drop off at one of the studios. (I’m up on Promontory and you know where ADORE is)

Just let me know!

Kim
