Capture the Story of Your Residents

Bring in Sacred Streets to capture the soul of your ministry through powerful portrait stories. It will inspire your audience toward involvement and radically uplift those going through recovery.

As we know, the first step to solving any humanitarian crisis is to change the way we think and talk about the people suffering. There’s no better way to do that than through stories told in a way that awakens the mind and softens the heart.

As a relational portrait artist and pastor since 2012, Jason Leith will create custom portraits with your people using meaningful materials that portray hope, value, and restoration.

Bring us in to connect with your residents at the start of their recovery journey. We will create custom portraits using meaningful materials that tell a story of hope, value, and restoration.

From Image to Impact

Fundraising and volunteer engagement are more challenging than ever so creative solutions are essential. Commissioning portraits like these activates your community, deepens your message, and helps you raise support and awareness. Here’s how:

  • High Quality Print Files of final artwork you can use in email blasts, end-of-year appeals, and social media.
  • Engaging Video & Photography of the live sketching process and clients’ responses that builds emotional connection and changes the narrative in your online storytelling
  • Donor Engagement through custom thank-you cards, quality art prints, and reveal moments at fundraising events.
      • Option: the Sacred Streets team can film, photograph, write, and cut clips for your team to deploy on a schedule.
  • Hang sketches in dorm hallways to affirm clients’ God-given dignity
  • Display originals in public areas to visually tell your ministry’s story and stir compassion
  • Gift portraits to graduates to carry with them as reminders of hope and calling 
  • Auction the originals and more than cover the cost of the commission. Purchased originals are often donated back to the ministry.
  • Cast vision in your capital campaign. Most building projects include budget for aesthetics and this line-item would inspire your donors to give toward telling a timeless stories of transformation.
