Miracles on 5th!

What a magical evening it was! This past Saturday night was the Fall Gala for the ALPHA House of Pinellas County. The event was held at the beautiful historic Coliseum on 4th avenue in St. Petersburg. I had the honor of photographing four of the little munchkins that currently reside at ALPHA House, I then took the pictures and designed a piece as a Live Auction item. It was so amazing to see the generosity pouring out to help the women and babies!

The ALPHA House is known as the "Miracle on 5th Avenue". They provide housing and supportive services to homeless pregnant women and teens, new mothers with infants, and families experiencing crisis pregnancies. Please visit their website for ways you can help!

Here's a peek at the event and of my piece that was kindly titled "Miracles on 5th"!
