Award: 2014 PDN Photo Annual

Photo District News announced the winners of its annual flagship photo contest and John Rae has been named a winner in the Design/Promo Category. The winning series of photographs was created for The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB, and Malaria on assignment in Zambia. Maureen, Rachel and Gift lost their parents to AIDS six years ago. Maureen, the oldest, was 16. Since then the children have been forced to fend for themselves. Maureen quit school and found a job to feed the others. Now with support of a GF program the younger kids are going to school. Additional nutritional, medical, and transportation supplements give the kids a fighting chance. The PDN Annual Photo Contest is one of the most prestigious contests in North America. The photographs were chosen from over 20,000 entries from around the world.
