Between the website, facebook page and email, we have received scores of heart-warming and encouraging notes from both participants and viewers. We want to share a selection of them with you, since you are the reason Shoot For Good was so successful…

“I just wanted to say thank you for putting this together! It’s good to see people out and about of all ages capturing the good there is all around us! I know there is ‘good’ that happens often but today it seemed like it was everywhere. I think it was mainly because I was out “looking” for it! I hope that this will be an annual event but then again it doesn’t have to be just an annual event to witness the good in people.” Florence ‘Flo’ Womacks
