Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Disability History, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
Smithsonian Institution said:
Hi Penny, We just added the photo to your group. If you don't mind, there's an easier way for us to receive invitations to share photos with groups. Navigate to the photo you want us to contribute. Below the comment box on each photo page, there is a link that reads "Invite this photo to...". Clicking that opens a drop-down for groups you administer that will auto-fill the comment box. We then receive a neat little button to contribute. Thanks for your interest and comments! The Smithsonian
