This trip has been really more of a labor of love and voyage of personal exploration than "work". I don't think there is any hope of it breaking even financially, but it has definitely been worth it personally, and I have learned a ton about how to do the next one.
I have received hundreds of very supportive and thankful emails from family members and citizens who value and appreciate what I'm doing. I have also received generous cash donations from the following individuals:
Jeff McIntosh
Blue Skies Glassworks
Cindy McLean
Mark Keefe
Mohan Komanduri
Rod Stroud
Paul Brazelton
Betsy Bowen
Deborah Doran
Mark Dudgeon
Mike Matthews
Michelle Schlichting

And of course none of this would be possible without the amazing support of my lovely wife, Sara. Thanks!
I'm not sure what the next trip will be, but I am definitely inspired to look for other opportunities for independent photojournalistic coverage of stories that aren't being told.

Actually, speaking of support, Sara has been a big part of it seems to me . . . Mom
well... you could also do a series on the family members... just a suggestion.
