   Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I suspect that photography
as most of use know it is a mystery to those under about 25. I am more than
three-quarters of a century old and find a lot of things which were common
experience when I was young are now considered ancient history by young
people and are completely unknown to a great many. It is curious to me that
the idea of bringing photography to all which was George Eastman's goal, has
been accomplished but with a completely different medium than Eastman
devised. It is practically impossible to do anything any more without
pictures of it appearing on the electronic media somewhere.

Learned about this group today. They are dedicated to preserving film
photography and educating student on technique and best practices.

They take donated film cameras, get them going, and give them to structured
photography programs so that students can learn traditional methods.

They also produce a podcast series

Frankly, they could use some of the expertise of members of this group, but
it seems to be a worthwhile and successful undertaking
