HHM Band 365
Donation protected
HHMBand 365 is a photo + video documentary project and collaboration by the Helping Hand Mission Band , Eve Hobgood and Shannon Wolf .
In 1973, Ms. Sylvia Wiggins founded the Helping Hand Mission with a goal of “joining hands to support families in need.” The mission became a second home to many as it provided children a place to go after school, stay out of trouble and be safe. Music and dancing were a big part of the daily camaraderie. With Sylvia’s love for the arts and a childhood dream of being a majorette, it was natural that they started their own marching band. Through the years, the band has brought smiles, joy and hope to countless people. Even when a parade’s over, the spirit of the Helping Hand Mission Band carries through the Raleigh community.
For 365 days, we documented the band through photo and video.
After an amazing year of shooting with the band, we are into the next phase and are producing a book with photos and interviews to document the year.
We have shot all of the photos and interviews. But to bring this book to life, we are raising money to cover book design and printing. All proceeds of book sales will go towards to Helping Hand Mission.
Thank you to Ms. Sylvia Wiggins, the band members and their families for letting us into their lives, sharing their stories, and for their inspiration.
And thank you all in advance for your support of this project with the band. Thank you!
Much love and gratitude,
~Shannon + Eve
