Amy Coplan donated six digital cameras to children in the remote village of San Martin De Tipishca, in the Amazon region of Peru. The children have produced intimate snapshots of daily life, including photos of them playing, swimming, attending school or helping adults in the village prepare food using traditional techniques.

She says she wants the project, called Ninos de la Amazonia, to raise awareness and enough money to buy needed medicines, school supplies and scholarship money.

Coplan first traveled to the Amazon as a volunteer with an environmental group, but she became more involved after seeing how limited the children's options were.

She's working to raise enough money for a small foundation that will provide educational scholarships for the children to pursue higher education.
