How has the pandemic changed your personal/professional priorities?


 

Awaiting project’s return

I had been actively involved in community service as the cofounder of The Bold Beauty Project since 2015. We are a Miami-based nonprofit, and we pair women with disabilities with volunteer photographers and create art shows. Our motto: Disability becomes Beauty becomes Art becomes Change.

I have dedicated about half of my time to the project, and it has been incredibly rewarding. It all came to a halt in March 2020, and it has left a real void in my daily schedule and my psyche. I am eagerly awaiting the return of the Bold Beauty Project with a renewed appreciation and enthusiasm. I hope you will check us out boldbeautyproject.com. If you are inspired to get involved, please contact me at evaritvomd@gmail.com.
