Dear AAJA Photojournalists,
For those of you on the fence about coming to the AAJA National Convention in Detroit, AFP photographer Stan Honda is donating the fee for one person to attend the convention. If you would like to attend and would like the opportunity to win this fee (value $300), please contact Paul Sakuma (psakuma@aol.com) Photojournalism students will get special consideration. Thank you Stan for your contribution.
Don’t forget, we need your one or two 11 x 14 print by June 1 for the Silent Auction. If you are coming or not, we need your donation to help student photojournalism scholarships. 100 per cent of money raise will go to these scholarships.
