Heart Gallery of NJ

It's always nice when people can do what they love and really contribute to society. The Heart Gallery of New Jersey was founded to help spread awareness of the plight of foster children, especially those with severe disabilities. Some of the best photographers in the country have volunteered their time to photograph them. The pictures show the life in these kids - and as the article says "Everyone deserves a family".
The Heart Gallery is designed to win hearts and homes. To achieve that goal, over 150 of the world's top photographers are volunteering their time and talent to create intimate, compelling portraits of foster children in New Jersey. The children featured are typically considered the "hardest to place" — those who are at least 3 years old, minorities, and/or in sibling groups, and are now available for adoption anywhere in the country.
