Kids First Riders

One rider, Jason Woelfel, is helping to raise funds by selling new 2009 calendars displaying his highly acclaimed scenic photography. In 2007 he went to China to visit a friend and took some beautiful photos of the countryside and cultural landmarks.Two calendars are available through lulu.com: China and Texas. You can also visit Jason’s photos site to build your own custom calendar and view other images from around the United States. All proceeds from these sites through February 2009 go directly to Kids First Vietnam.

“There is always a story to tell,” says Jason, when speaking of his photography. “I don’t like it when it’s easy. Usually there is a long journey involved… sometimes hardship and sacrifice.” Jason goes on to say that he travels not in search of a photo, but an adventure. “My favorite images stand out from my album as bright, shining memories that mean more to me than ink and paper,” he says.
