Seattle photographer Phil Borges held "Picture This!," the first fund-raising event for his nonprofit group Bridges to Understanding, on May 27. The evening featured the presentation of the first Bridges to Understanding Humanitarian Award to Getty Images CEO Jonathan Klein.

Borges is also working on multimedia documentaries for his Women Empowerment project. In July, Borges will return to Tibet to film a documentary for the NGO Global Network, focusing on the high death rate of women during childbirth in that region.
