Volunteer Photographer Mike Krivit

Twin Cities commercial photographer, Mike Krivit, has volunteered his time and talent to shoot much needed headshots of RMHC-UM staff. They will be displayed in the House, as well as on our website. Mike is tremendously talented and we are thrilled he is a friend of RMHC-UM.

Through the window - RMHC community events

As part of my job here at RMHC-UM I assist volunteers and organizations with events and fundraisers they hold to benefit us. Last Thursday I attended one of these events. The MENSDEPT salon in Minneapolis held a grand opening party and opened an exhibit of photography featuring today's modern man photographed by David Raccuglia. All proceeds from the photos and party will go towards supporting families staying at the Ronald McDonald House of the Twin Cities.

The event was catered by Thyme to Entertain. They donated their services and brought their latest fun cooking technique - wood fired pizza out of the back of a vintage fire truck! Sebastian Joe's also donated ice cream to the event. It was a wonderful event and the photographs by David Raccuglia are amazing. Limited edition prints can be purchased through the MENSDEPT for the next two months.

Thank you to Mike Krivit for attending the event and photographing it on behalf of RMHC-UM!
