L.A.Times, MediaStorm.org. Sponsored by the Edom Foundation.
The Edom Foundation for Photojournalism Education is working with the National Press Photographers Association, the Los Angeles Times and MediaStorm to encourage the use of pictures documenting the experiences of veterans and their families to help improve their care and support as they re-enter society.
These photographers have agreed to make their pictures available to organizations working on behalf of veterans at no cost, just credit and copyright protection. For example: “Photographer’s name, email address and Publication – Organization. Sponsored by the Edom Foundation.”

Lawrence Jackson, White House Photographer, points out that sharing documentary stories about veterans and their families “would be a tremendous aid in helping wounded soldiers know they are not alone and it gives a look into the world of disabled veterans that most people don’t know about.”
