Meet Isabelle Ginsberg, 17, who turned park photos into cancer fundraiser
For over a year, a Brooklyn teenager showcased the allure of Prospect Park in her photographs. The passion project transformed into a community print sale aimed at supporting cancer research for Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. Inspired by her father’s battle with cancer, she cleverly merged creativity and community spirit to make a difference in the fight against the disease.
Isabelle Ginsberg, a 17-year-old Brooklyn teen, turned her passion for photography into a cancer fundraiser. She spent over a year capturing photos of Prospect Park, the park becoming a backdrop for her art. Her family's experience with cancer, including her father's battle with brain cancer in 2020, motivated her to create a fundraiser with the proceeds going to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
Her mother, a photographer and exhibition curator, encouraged Isabelle to share her work, leading to a community print sale at the VFW Post on Prospect Avenue. Nearly all 30 framed prints sold, with the funds going directly to cancer research and patient care.
