Greetings,

I'm writing today to let you know about a new project I'm piloting
called Family Photos for Peace.  Here's how it works:  You email me a
photo of your family and I post it (with no identification) on the
Family Photos for Peace web page.  $2 is donated to UNICEF for each
photo received.  You are welcome to match the donation to any
organization you like, but that's definitely not required.  The idea is
to have a "sea" of family photos, each standing for the proposition that
we have much more that binds us together than we do that keeps us apart.
The money that is raised goes to support that notion.  It's quite simple
and I hope it will be fruitful.

There is a link on the site inviting written suggestions for improving
our world situation.  These will be posted into the Guestbook on the
site.  I invite you to have your students send in photos and their
ideas.

You can have a look at the page as it now exists, though it's pretty
sparse.  Hopefully this message will get the ball rolling.  Any
feedback/suggestions you'd like to provide are, of course, welcome.

Enjoy all that the end of the year brings--and on into 2005.

Best,
Michael Krauss
