The launch of the online Bravery gallery is live as of August 1st. I decided to begin the viewing earlier than October in order to build momentum for the website and collect donations. Unfortunately my online pay client account is not active yet, but should be on August 4th. Once the pay client is active,there will be a ChipIn widget on the front page that you can copy the html code and embed it into your own website, myspace, or blog to help Bravery meet the $100,000 goal. This is a lofty goal but I know we can reach it together.Because of this early launch, all the portraits are not live yet, but will be up during the first couple weeks of August. Additionally, the gallery and auction page will be continually updated. I will keep you in formed when everything is complete. In the meantime I encourage you to view the art, read the stories, and share the website.
The auction will be through MissionFish/Ebay and is set for open bidding on September 1st to allow for more in-kind donations to come in. There is also a new blog specifically for the Bravery Auction that you can subscribe by email to stay updated on the new additions to the auction and where we are in the donation pool. This subscription is identical to the blog subscription at dvportraits.blogspot.com. There are some really wonderful items to bid on and it keeps getting better.
Please offer me feedback or ideas. I value your opinion. Happy viewing!

Vicki,
You are doing a wonderful thing - not only helping individuals and families, but also bringing awareness to the community as a whole to the reality of domestic violence. Linda
