Today is #GivingTuesday—a powerful opportunity for all of us to give back and use our passions to inspire change. As a creative and founder of the CJ Wolfe Foundation, I’ve seen how photography can uplift and empower youth at risk of gun violence in Philadelphia. Through programs like our Youth Photography Classes, Scholarship Fund, Pull Up & Pitch initiative, and Community Weekend, we’re creating pathways for creativity, growth, and opportunity in partnership with Immortal Vision Studio. With your generosity, we can provide more young people with cameras, mentorship, and the inspiration to dream bigger.
