Photographer shares earnings with charity

Harriman — During October, Cheryl Fils-Aime, proprieter of Cherfoto Images, participated in the 2005 Family Portrait Month promotion for the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) Charities. The photo studio donated $25 of each reduced-portrait session fee to Operation Smile. Thanks to the generosity of her clients, she was able to donate $300 to a perpetual fund for continued support of Operation Smile. The gift will help insure that more lives will be enriched by a child’s happy smile. Fils-Aime received a personal letter of thanks from Mary Fisk-Taylor, chairman of PPA Charities, for her contribution. For more information about Operation Smile, visit www.operationsmile.org. Cherfoto Images, located at 28 Grove St. in Harriman, is open from 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Friday. For more information, call 783-6535 or visit www.cherfoto.com.
