CALL FOR ENTRIES

Open to photographers and aspiring photographers.

Hopefull Magazine is looking for beautiful photographs of people aged 80 and above to feature in its next issue. Your subject could be your parent, grandparent, tito or tita or anyone you know who has the kind of wisdom that only comes with age.

Join The Ruth Foundation as we celebrate living fulfilling lives this November.

THE PHOTO

  • Full-color headshot (be creative, think Humans of New York)

  • Portrait orientation

  • Biggest size and highest resolution your camera can take

  • At least 11×17 inches, 300 dpi

Recommended cameras: DSLR, HD digicam, or higher-end phones (12 megapixels and up)

THE WISDOM

The stories are just as important as the photograph. Have your photo subject give an answer in 1-3 sentences, Filipino or English, to any of these three questions:

  • What makes you feel most alive?

  • What one piece of advice would they give to younger generations?

  • What are their hopes and dreams for their loved ones’?

THE REQUIREMENTS

Fill out the Google form below to submit your entry:

THE HONOR

The best photos will be featured in the next edition of Hopefull and an upcoming photo exhibit, with the best shot on the cover of the magazine.

THE DEADLINE: October 10, 2017

Help spread our message of #caredignityhope.

ELNEC-Core at DLSHSI (August 17-18, 2017)

IMG_5077-BEST-1024x683.jpg

A great wave in Philippine palliative health care is growing, with the DOH administrative policy and other exciting developments taking shape. We were so glad to have over fifty participants join us for our End-of-Life Nursing Education Consortium – Core Course last August 17 & 18. More people need to know how much comfort and peace palliative care offers those with declining health. 

A big thank you again to our partners at the De La Salle Health Sciences Institute & College of Nursing for their invaluable help during this two-day course.

More photos are available at our Facebook page.
