I apologize for taking so long to get back to you
about the camera donations.
Until I can find out more about getting possible
donations of cameras (if I am able to at all) I'm just wondering if you have
used the one-time-use cameras? A company may even be willing to donate
some to you for your class.

P.S. The work your students have done is quite
remarkable.

Subject: Camera donation for social
project
Hi,
In february I'm going to lead a photo
social project here in Brazil joining poor children (10yo to 16yo) and
amateur photographers. We're contacting some ONGs that already works with
poor children in order to get some nice results still in the first semester
of 2006.
As soon as it's a ONG type project, we're going to run the
project cheap and based on donations. We have already picked some money and
bought some bulk BW film (10 bulk rolls of Fortepan ISO 100 - cheap but nice
for our proposal), a photo magazine will send us some kits for BW film
development and a pro lab in São Paulo city will support this project
printing the photos in a Fuji Frontier minilab (20 rolls of 36 exp. per
month). It's not very much but enouth to start the project.
The
problem is that we have not enouth 35mm SLR cameras !!! We need at least 15
cameras but have just 3 ones, a Canon AE1+ 50mm, a Praktica MTL3+50mm and a
Zenit 12XP+50mm ... we still need 12 cameras.
Well, if you have
some old but working 35mm SLR cameras lost in your closed and would like to
support this project sending it to us by USPS mail, I would thanks very
much. Any old Zenit E, Minolta, Nikon, Canon, Fujica or even some 35mm
autofocus with manual exposure would fit.
Contacts in pvt, please,
for not disturbing the list.
Thanks,
Charles
