There are so many families with a special needs child and many more with a ill family member. Family portraits, many times are the items that are forgotten or may be the one thing famlies would like to have, but find it difficult to afford a professional photographer, that will bring out the special qualities and help capture the legacy of their loved one. Your donations to Younique Legacy Foundation will enable these families to acquire precious memories at no charge.
