Red Dot Relief is an organization, that through the arts, raises immediate and long term relief for those affected by the March 11th earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
Parsons photography senior, Mara Kristula-Green, grew up in Tokyo, Japan for 18 years. After viewing photographs, videos, and articles addressing the earthquakes and tsunami that struck Japan on March 11th, Mara knew the country both she and her friends and family call home needed immediate and long term relief. After speaking with high school classmates in Japan who founded My Japan Earthquake, Mara saw an opportunity to raise funds and awareness through the photographic community in the United States. With the help of fellow Parsons photography students Kaz Senju and Lisa Gonzalez, Red Dot Relief was formed.
Red Dot Relief will be holding an online photography print sale with all proceeds given to organizations that can best provide support to the affected areas. We are looking for emerging and established photographers willing to donate photographs for the print sale.
