I was honored to be asked to spend a day photographing some various young children at Easter Seals as they received therapy from loving professionals who are devoted to making progress in the lives of kids with disabilities. It is a humbling experience to be in the room as the therapists work with each child one on one, with passion and dignity shown to them it is unlike anything I have witnessed in my adult life.

I spent a couple of days photographing some of the beautiful young children at the Crittenton Centers and Crisis Nursery located at 442 West John Gwynn Jr. Avenue in downtown Peoria, IL. The facility is under the leadership of Cindy Fisher, and her loving staff of employee’s and volunteers nurture over 60 young children daily. Hope you are moved by some of the photo’s to make a donation to to the facility.

Sophomore Madelyn Ervin (Lewis Center, Ohio/Olentangy) tallied a season-high 15 kills and freshman Amy Angelos (Waukegan, Ill./Waukegan) matched Ervin with 15 kills of her own to help Bradley to five-set victory (25-19, 14-25, 25-19, 23-25, 15-9) against Indiana State Saturday at Renaissance Coliseum. The win was the Braves fourth in the last six matches and Bradley closed out the home slate with wins in three of the last four matches at Renaissance Coliseum.
