Thank you all very much for your generous pledges. We are feeling increasingly confident and hope you are too. Please spread the word and consider increasing your pledge so we can reach our goal and get on with building a beautiful exhibition.
The NYChildren Photography Project is about many things including building community, a quest and numbers. With that, if every one of our 229 backers, including you!!, increased their pledge by $30.57 we'd hit 70k and be on our way!!
Here are three photographs that will be part of the exhibit. Lola from Czech Republic in Brooklyn, Nur Azmina (with Mom) from Brunei in Manhattan and Mandisa from Botswana in Coney Island, Brooklyn.
Many thanks from the Park51 team!

Park51 will be a vibrant and inclusive community center, reflecting the diverse spectrum of cultures and traditions, serving New York City with programs in education, arts, culture, and recreation.
Inspired by Islamic values and Muslim heritage, Park51 will weave the Muslim-American identity into the multicultural fabric of the United States. We will foster cooperation and understanding between people of all faiths and backgrounds through relevant programs and initiatives.
