Look Up Mobile!
2nd Annual
Photographic Landmark Hunt
On August 1, 2009, volunteers will launch the second annual Look
Up Mobile! TM Photographic Landmark Hunt to raise much
needed funds for the work of
South Alabama CARES.
Held in cooperation with the
Mobile Arts Council, this fundraiser is a one-of-a-kind event,
and gives you and/or your organization a chance to get your name
before the public as a benefactor of a worthy cause and sponsor for
something creative and fun.
The 2008 Look Up
Mobile! TM Project raised $18,000
for AIDS/HIV Education and Services and created quite a buzz in the
Mobile area.
Five local professional
photographers have been selected to shoot a total of twenty-five artistic
photographs of historic and/or recognizable locations throughout
Mobile. These photographs will be printed in
a high-quality booklet with color front and back covers that people
will purchase as the entry form for the contest.
The books will go on sale to the general public August 1st,
and at a special preview event prior to that date. All entries must
be submitted no later than 12 noon, Saturday, September 12, 2009 to
the Mobile Arts Council.
A grand prize of $2,500 will be given to the entrant who correctly
describes all locations.
See contest rules for more information.

"South Alabama CARES receives Federal, State,
Local, and Private funding, but is still dependent on the
generosity of our friends to support services to people living
with HIV and to provide prevention education to the community.
The agency is proud to maintain an administrative cost of only
11%. It cost roughly $765 per year to provide services to each
of our 654 clients. We need your help to continue
providing these important services.”
