How Do We Give Back...

We give back several different ways. When you purchase from this website, a portion of all proceeds are donated to help the following:

1) Trees For The Future

We call it Print One. Plant One. With the help from our friends at Trees for the Future (a 501(c)3 non-profit organization), our donations will plant trees with rural communities in the developing world, enabling them to restore their environment, grow more food, and build a more sustainable future. 1 Print Ordered by you = 1 Tree planted!

CHANGING LIVES THROUGH REGENERATIVE AGRICULTURE

This program is the forest garden approach and through it, TREES achieves a triple bottom line impact of people, profit, and planet. TREES aims to alleviate poverty and eradicate hunger while maximizing the environmental benefits provided by each of the millions of trees we plant each year. This is an innovative approach that is not only revitalizing the environment but is also planting thousands of families out of poverty in a sustainable way. Farmers learn to plan for their family’s future by discovering how planting 4,000 trees with food crops will help them make more money, grow more food and build a sustainable future.
They learn to plant over 12 types of fruit trees and vegetables to meet market opportunities and the nutritional needs of their families. To learn more, we encourage you to watch this short YouTube video by clicking here. Their website is https://trees.org/

2) Denver Rescue Mission

We support a local Non-Profit called the Denver Rescue Mission (a 501(c)3 non-profit organization). We are committed to helping those less fortunate...
Denver Rescue Mission has been serving the most vulnerable in the Denver community for more than 129 years. Their history is rooted in a love of Christ and a commitment to share that love with others. At multiple locations throughout the Denver community, they help restore the lives of people experiencing homelessness and addiction through emergency services, rehabilitation, transitional programs, and community outreach. Their website is https://denverrescuemission.org/

3) firstloverevolution.com

We support firstloverevolution.com (a 501(c)3 non-profit organization) and the goal to plant 1,000 new church plants around the globe. An impossible & audacious goal by mans standards. But we serve a God where all things are possible, nothing is too big for Him.

Their vision: A revolution that returns to its roots, that rights what is wrong (in the world), revives what is dying (in us), & reclaims what is lost (in the church). We know that there was once a community of Christians who, against all odds, and in the face of persecution and powerful pressures to extinguish them, lived out their faith in such a way that Jesus transformed an empire from emperor worship into worshipping Jesus in only a few generations. We do not believe there has to be a gap between what we read in our New Testaments and what we experience today. To learn more, visit https://firstloverevolution.com/beliefs/who-we-are

Why did Kyle pick these non-profits?

I've been told by many fellow photographers that if you want to be successful in print sales, you have to pick a cause or a charity that resonates with your audience. And it has to be either an animal rescue charity like World Wide Funds for Nature or Save the Whales. Or it has to be a conservation non-profit like The Nature Conservancy or Sierra Club. These are all great charities and there is nothing wrong if a photographer/artist wants to support these groups.

But to me, I got to go with what is on my heart, maybe not what is popular. What is truly important to me is helping people. Giving a helping hand & showing the love of Christ to people who are less fortunate and have serious struggles in this world. God has blessed me beyond measure, and I want nothing more than for others to know that same blessing. That is why I picked these charities, they are making a difference!
