This September marks the 11th annual Save Your Photos Month, a global educational campaign presented by The Photo Managers to inspire individuals, families, and professionals to protect their irreplaceable photo and video memories, before and after disaster strikes.

“Save Your Photos Month is more than a campaign—it’s a movement,” says Cathi Nelson, founder of The Photo Managers. “Our goal is to empower people to take proactive steps to protect their visual legacies before it’s too late.”

Save Your Photos Month stems from a decade-long commitment to preserving family memories. Originally launched as Save Your Photos Day in 2014 and expanded into Save Your Photos Month in 2016, the initiative empowers families to protect their photo legacies year-round. This year the event is hosted by The Photo Managers and supported by leading partners like EPSON, Projector, and Artifcts.
