Idea for a Fund-Raiser

Its kind of like that cancer calendar that those older women did at one point. They were regular women doing stuff around the house - they were nude, but it was tasteful.

cool ideas. this is a little off topic, but i aways thought it would be neat to do kind of a now and then type thing. for example a person doing something that shows how cf has taken over there life, while holding up a picture of themselves as a child. Kinda deppressing, but i always thought that would make a statement. although it would probably get redundant for a 12 month calander. Anywho I hope something comes out of this. Good luck.

It sounds like it would be fun and definately get people's attention.

Maybe you could do a Demi Moore-esqe pregnancy shot of a woman with cf! (Perhaps a little more covered, but still...people don't realize how far we've come. It might be nice to help show this disease isn't just the face of kids anymore) A caption underneath the preggy photo could say something like-Help me see my grandchildren.


Just thoughts.

Like I said before I am totally in for this I would LOVE to do this. I havent heard of anyone saying if they were really serious. I would be more then willing to contact the local offices here and talk to them. Seeing as this was an idea on here. Why dont we actually come up with a theme of pics and we can post them up and then use 13 pics, 12 and one for the cover and actually get like a prototype and take that to the cf offices. If we are serious, lets really get this rolling. Im so excited about this, I know all my family would buy one.


So lets think
#1 ~ What type of pics are we looking for, ones tastefully without clothes or with. I personally suggest that we do have something like a bathing suit or something if we are leaning more towards the tastefull without clothes, you know so we can show scars but still be tastefull for young CF'ers to look up to the adult ones.

#2 ~ Should we focus on making sure that we show off our scars so that people see them

#3 ~ Should we set a type of background for our pics, like all of them in an outside setting, or a natural picture or a posed pic
