One never knows what difference the simple decision to get involved will make. In the case of Tom Brady’s picking up the phone and calling The Haitian Project, it has made a world of difference for our community, delivering everything from ondemand photography work to the recruitment of architects and a thousand things in between.
Seven years ago, Tom Brady made the decision to respond to a bulletin announcement at St. James in Rockford, IL. Since that initial response, the Brady family has continued to serve THP consistently over the years. First, it was through Tom’s mission trips to LCS and his service on the THP Board of Directors. Quickly THP became a family activity. Tom’s wife, Cheryl, rounded up clothes and other donations. The staff of Tom’s store, Camera Craft, provides media assistance to help THP with everything from capital campaigns to newsletters.

Now, the next generation is stepping in to help the THP/LCS community. Laura Brady (17) and Carolyn Brady (14) volunteer weekly in THP’s Development Office. They joyfully attack everything from envelope addressing to computer tasks. When the job is too big for two, they bring their friends!
