Loyola University New Orleans is now partnering with the center through its service learning program, placing college students there to help mentor, tutor and sometimes just listen to the kids. The students help with homework, coach youth basketball teams, lead music and arts activities, and give computer tutoring to children who might otherwise be exposed to unsafe or unhealthy alternatives.

I was reading online after having seen some wonderful tiltshift photography about how to get the best tile shift mechanically, and not via photoshop.
Not having a tiltshift lens or a lensbaby, I grabbed an old SMC PENTAX-A 1:2 50MM that I had put through its paces for many years on my K1000. The K`1000 is now a museum piece on the shelf in my office, so the 50mm would be a good donor device.
My first attempts were just "free lensing", hold the non-connected lens in front of my 7D. I had trouble focusing as I just couldn't get close enough without worrying about hitting the mirro with the edge of the lens.
So I got out my magnifying glass and my small screwdrivers and stripped the back end off the 50mm. Oh my. I took off the apeture setting gear and basically anything else that had a screw holding it in.
Now the above image is a "free lensing" shot with that device. I've found the focusing spot and believe I now have a crude tilt shift.
Tomorrow I hit the workshop and build some kind of attachment device (I've seen plans for several online) that keeps the back plane of the lens at 44mm from the focal plane in the camera. This should result in a pure tiltshift!
More to come as I experiment with this device!
