Through your generous support this year, God has grown much fruit! Some highlights include:
Our award-winning film Case Notes, which was accepted into 19 festivals and won 3 awards - including Best Antiracism Film
Beginning development on five new feature films and three educational resources
Walking alongside 9 mentees, providing whole person coaching and connections in the professional world
Consulting with 12 organizations
Creating a total of twenty short films that highlight untold stories and center new heroes.
We hope as you read our 2023 annual report below, you see yourselves reflected in this rich feast of nourishing and dignity-forward storytelling, and be led to make an end of year gift to continue our work. Thank you!
If you want to make a big impact, consider giving to our new Working Capital Fund!
This fund is critical to allow us to develop films to the point where they can receive outside investment, seeding a culture of storytelling centering marginalized voices into the mainstream entertainment industry. Revenue generated from films will then return back into the capital fund, creating a sustainable cycle of film development for years to come.
Here are some examples of what this fund will allow us to do:
Travel to California in January to capture footage for The Ghosts They Carry and initial interviews for Manong
Film a teaser for our film in development, White Jesus
Create an educational resource around Case Notes
Fund our Kwanzaa docu-series in development
In the coming years, we want to amplify those with resonance rather than influence - healing divides and addressing cultural ills. Help us reach our goal of $250,000!
