Robert Charles Photography Sets $20,000 Goal for Children’s Hospital

EAST LONGMEADOW — Robert Charles Photography recently announced a goal to raise $20,000 for Baystate Children’s Hospital.

Since 2005, the studio has donated more than $80,000 to the hospital by gifting its proceeds from sessions purchased in the month of December. In an effort to reach its ultimate goal of raising $100,000, the company has put together a special holiday package available until Wednesday, Dec. 23. All proceeds from the sale of these packages will benefit the area’s only children’s hospital.

For a donation of $79 to Baystate Children’s Hospital, donors will receive a photographic
session, an 8×10 signature portrait, digital images for social media, and a surprise gift. Two other companies have stepped up to help in this year’s effort; Pop’s Biscotti & Chocolate of Wilbraham and the Delaney House of Holyoke. Both have offered to provide special gifts to those who make a donation. The retail value of the holiday package now exceeds $350.

To make a donation and receive a holiday package, call (413) 525-4264 or visit www.robertcharlesphoto.com. Holiday packages may be purchased as a gift or used for the family making the donation. The sessions can also be scheduled until April 2016. A limited number of packages are available.
