Event description/purpose: The LOOK! Forward Photography Exhibit, hosted by Family Connection of South Carolina, returns this summer and will be on display at the newly renovated Richland Library, 1431 Assembly Street in downtown Columbia, from June 1 through August 17.
This exhibit showcases the beauty and strength of children, teens and young adults who are living rich, full lives despite their disability or special healthcare need. Last year, thanks to the generosity of 27 Midlands area photographers, the exhibit featured 50 children, teens and adults – a value of more than $40,000 in services. Family Connection developed the LOOK! project in response to often heard comments from the families we serve. “I wish that the world would really see my child and not just their disability!”

How will this project make an impact? Richland Library’s downtown location has more than 7,000 visitors a day, seven days a week. That means more than 546,000 people will see the exhibit over the course of its 78-day run. We are also working to have the exhibit travel to at least two other areas of the state.

Our Walk to Cure Arthritis is the largest arthritis gathering in the world, celebrating our warriors, raising funds for research, resources and a cure. Much more than just a walk event, it’s something even bigger than arthritis itself.

Arthritis affects more than 50 million Americans, including 300,000 children. They are warriors. They face relentless pain, a frustrating search for a diagnosis, multiple doctor’s visits and treatment, missed work and school, limited mobility, a maze of medical and insurance paperwork, and the desire to live a full life without the limitations that arthritis can create.

We need help the day of the event, there are various opportunities and different shifts.
